Installing the Redundant Power System
2-12 Hardware Installation
Be sure the CF’s wider grooved edge fits into the wider groove of the PCMCIA interface in the
front of the XSR. Note that the XSR-1805’s CF eject mechanism pops out when you install the
card for easy removal.

Formatting the CompactFlash Card
If your CF is not formatted, there are two ways you can format the card:
• Use the XSR Bootrom Monitor Mode
ffc
command. A few seconds after you boot up the XSR,
press the
CTRL-C
keys and a password prompt will appear. Press ENTER (factory default) if
you have not defined any password. The Bootrom Monitor Mode will appear. Enter
ffc
and
the router will complete the formatting.
• Install the CF in a PCMCIA card and enter the Windows format command. For further
instructions, refer to Windows documentation.
• After completing CF formating via Bootrom Monitor Mode, use the
bc
command to restart the
XSR in normal mode.
Installing the Redundant Power System
The XSR-1850 provides an optional, external power supply, as illustrated in Figure 2-18 , for use as
a supplemental power source. This 50-watt, AC to DC Redundant Power System is a truly
redundant unit which is operated in parallel with the standard internal power supply, with which
it shares power buses. The power system requires no configuration - it begins operating when all
cables are connected.
