3 Power Connections
After installing the appliance in a rack, connect it to power and make sure it is operational.
Connecting an Appliance to Power
1. Remove the power cables from the shipping box.
2. Plug the power cables into the appliance power supplies. Wrap the hook-and-loop strain relief around the
power cable, as shown in Figure 7 .
3. Connect the appliance to a power source.

The appliance turns on as soon as the power supplies are connected to a live power source.
Each controller contains a backup power supply (BPS). The BPS batteries begin to charge when the
appliance is connected to power. A full charge takes up to eight hours to complete; the NAS
appliance is not fully redundant until the battery is fully charged. The BPS provides the clustered
solution enough time to write all cached data to disk if the controller experiences a loss of power.
4. Check the LED on the front panel to make sure the appliance is operational (see Figure 3 ).
