5. Connect all supported devices to an AC power source.
6. If the RPS1000 is not already connected to AC power, connect the AC power cable to the
RPS1000, and connect the other end of the power cable to an AC power source.
7. Press the RPS1000
STBY/ACTIVE
button to put the RPS1000 into active mode.
The STBY/ACTIVE, Output Power, Temperature, and Fan LEDs on the RPS1000 front panel should be
green. The DC Output LEDs for the connected devices should also be green. If they are not green,
see “LEDs” section on page 5 for the appropriate action to take.
NOTE:
The RPS1000 is designed to provide backup for
internal power supply failures of connected device power
supplies. It is not designed to act as a backup power
source that protects against losses of power due to
external power outages. We recommend using an
uninterruptable power system (UPS) as protection against
power outages.
