4.3.1.1
ON/OFF Button
The ON/OFF button is located on the front panel of the R4U8S rack.
DO NOT turn the power on while the power is cycling off. Wait a few seconds until the power has
completely cycled off. Follow the same precaution for turning the power off.
Turning the power on or off before this cycle is complete can cause the voltage and temperature values
programmed into the board monitoring system to be lost.
MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW THESE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.
Make sure the rack has been powered off using the ON/OFF button (on the front control panel of the rack)
before unplugging the power supply cable.
