Action:
1. Be sure the monitor power cord is plugged into a working grounded (earthed)
AC outlet.
2. Power up the monitor and be sure the monitor light is on, indicating that the
monitor is receiving power.
3. Be sure the monitor is cabled to the intended server or KVM connection.
4. Be sure no loose connections (on page 154 ) exist.
−
For rack-mounted servers, check the cables to the KVM switch and be
sure the switch is correctly set for the server. You may need to connect
the monitor directly to the server to be sure the KVM switch has not
failed.
−
For tower-model servers, check the cable connection from the monitor to
the server, and then from the server to the power outlet.
