Adding a Power Supply
Before unpacking the new power supply, inspect the shipping carton for obvious damage. If damage to the
shipping carton is observed, report it to the carrier immediately.
Carefully unpack the new power supply. Check it for damage. If no damage is observed, proceed with the
instructions that follow. If damage is noticed, do not install the power supply. Get a replacement power supply.
WARNING Be careful lifting the power supply into the SPU, it weights approximately 7.88 Kg
(17.5lbs.).
WARNING The AC power to the SPU does not have to be disconnected to add a power supply to
the SPU. Also the power switch on the SPU does not have to be in the standby
position to perform this task.
To add a power supply in the SPU, perform the following steps:
1. Be sure the power switch on the power supply is in the OFF position. (To view the video of the switch,
click here.)
2. Remove the front bezel. (To view the video of the bezel, click here.)
3. Remove the EMI shield. (To view the video of the EMI shield, click here.)
4. Remove the power supply slot cover in the desired position, by loosening the two captive screws at the top
edge of the cover, then pull it away from the SPU.
5. Align the power supply with the selected empty slot in the front of the SPU.
6. Slide the power supply into the SPU while holding the insertion/extractor lever out (horizontal).
7. Push the power supply into the SPU firmly until the insertion/extractor lever can hook under the
extended tab on the SPU.
8. Push the insertion/extractor lever down, flush with the power supply. This firmly seats the power supply
to the system board.
9. Tighten the two captive mounting screws.
10. Be sure the power cord associated with the power supply installed is connected at the back of the SPU.
11. Put the power switch, on the front of the power supply, in to the ON position.
NOTE The power OK LED should be on when the power switch is in the ON position, and there is
a power cord plugged in.
