6-2 Control Panel
The front control panel must be connected to the JF1 connector on the serverboard
to provide you with system status and alarm indications. A ribbon cable has bundled
these wires together to simplify this connection.
Connect the cable from JF1 on the serverboard (making sure the red wire plugs
into pin 1) to the appropriate connector on the front control panel PCB. Pull all ex-
cess cabling over to the control panel side of the chassis. The LEDs on the control
panel inform you of system status - see Figure 6-2 for details. See Chapter 5 for
details on JF1.
