2. Omneon MediaDecks do not have any power switches. To take full advantage of the dual redundant
power supplies on the Omneon MediaDeck, ensure that separate, isolated power sources are
available. Connect AC cords to the two AC connectors on the Omneon MediaDeck.
1. If you are connecting to an automation system, make sure the power switch on the automation
system is off. Attach an AC cord to the AC connector on the automation system.

Important:
Do not plug the AC cords into AC power sources yet. Connecting to an AC power
source will turn on the Omneon MediaDeck.
3. Make sure that the power switch for the SystemManager Platform or client PC is off, and that the
power switch for the Keyboard/Monitor Tray is off as well. Attach an AC cord to the AC connector on
your SystemManager Platform or client PC, as well as your SystemManager Keyboard/Monitor Tray.
