Step 4. Apply Power to the Switch

Connect the external DC power supply to the back of 
the switch.

Attach the AC power cord to the external power supply 
and wall outlet or power strip. Verify that the Input 
Power LED is illuminated.

The switch runs its self tests and begins normal 
operation – this may take a few minutes. Verify that the 
Heartbeat LED is blinking (once per second) and the 
System Fault LED is NOT illuminated.
