System Unit
The following subsections provide service-related information about the system
unit.
System Power Supply
The 500-W system power supply can operate from an AC power source of 90 to
265 VAC at 50 or 60 Hz. When the power-supply paralleling board is installed,
the power supplies are hot-pluggable. When the red LED on the power supply is
lit (except during power-up), it indicates that the power supply has failed (see
Figure 1-5). When the green LED is lit, it indicates that +5 VDC is on. The sys-
tem power supply provides the DC operating voltages and currents listed in
Table 1-1.
NOTE: The power supply produces DC voltages only under its loaded condi-
tion. Therefore, when you measure these voltages, the DC power connectors
must be connected to their corresponding power input connectors on the system
board or drives.
