Power On and Off
After you have connected all of the equipment that you will use with the RealPresence Group system,
connect the power and power on the system. Make sure that the system is powered off before you connect
devices to it. Note that Polycom RealPresence Group 300, 310, 500, and 700 systems do not have what
you might think of as a power button—they have a power proximity sensor. Instead of pressing an actual
button that moves, you touch the sensor (or near the sensor) that indicates power
on the front of the
system.

Power-On Self Test (POST)
After being powered on, the RealPresence Group systems automatically perform system health checks
before the system is initialized. This process is known as a power-on self test, or POST. The status of the
POST sequence is displayed with the LED indicator light on the front of the device, or in the case of the
RealPresence Group 700 system, in the text field display on the front of the device. For more information
about what the colors of the indicator lights mean, refer to
RealPresence Group System Indicator Lights
.
When the POST sequence completes with no severe errors, the RealPresence Group system starts
normally.
Test results for the RealPresence Group 300, 310, 500, and 700 systems are logged in the system memory.
If any warnings occur during POST on RealPresence Group 300, 310, 500, and 700 systems, you can view
them after the system starts by going to Settings > System Information > Status > Active Alerts in the
local interface, or Diagnostics > System > Active Alerts in the web interface. If a severe error occurs
during startup, the system does not start up. Contact Polycom technical support.
