Unit Setup
Replacing a Redundant Power Supply Module
On each 9000 R with RAID unit, the power supply has two modules. Each power supply module is
capable of powering the entire recorder, if necessary. If one module fails, the other module powers
the recorder alone until the failed module is replaced. You must replace a failed power supply
module as soon as possible in order to ensure that the unit does not lose power completely.
The procedure for replacing a power module is slightly different depending on the recorder model.
Replacing a Redundant Power Supply Module in a 2U Recorder
The power supply modules for the 2U recorder have a lever at the right side of each module to
unlock the module from the recorder unit. The functioning power supply module remains plugged
in so that the recorder never loses power during the replacement process.
To replace a redundant power supply module in a 2U recorder
1
The LEDs on the back of the power supply modules indicate which module has failed and
requires replacing. Only unplug the power cord from the failed module. DO NOT unplug the
functioning module.
2
On the module that you want to replace, move the lever at the right of the module to the left to
unlock the module from the recorder unit.
