2. Insert the power supplys 8-pin DIN connector into the modems rear panel dc power

Modem Power-Up
Once your modem is properly connected to the power supply, leased and/or dial lines, and the
DTE, press the modems rear panel power switch to the ON position. The modem begins a
power-up self-test, in which all DCP LEDs light. This test takes several seconds to perform, and
verifies the operation of most hardware components within the modem. If successful, the LCD
displays Power on Selftst Passed and continues to the Top-Level menu screen.

If a failure occurs during the self-test, the LCD displays Power On Selftst Failed for several
seconds. The LCD then displays the Top-Level menu screen with the message Power on Fail
appearing on the top line of the LCD. Although a failure has occurred, the modem will attempt to
operate. This allows you to activate a more thorough self-test using the Test branch. Refer to
Chapter 8, Test Branch.
