Introduction Circuit Overloading To avoid circuit overloading make sure the equipment is properly connected to the supply circuit and follow equipment ratings. Reliable Grounding Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections rather than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).
Introduction Control Panel There are several LEDs on the control panel and on the drive carriers to keep you constantly informed of the overall status of the system as well as the activity and health of specific components. There are also 2 buttons on the chassis control panel. Control Panel Buttons There are 2 buttons located on the front of the chassis: a power on/off button and a reset button. Power The power button is used to apply or turn off the main system power.
Introduction Reset The reset button should not be used unless pressing Power fails to shutdown the system. Control Panel LEDs The control panel located on the front of the chassis has several LEDs. These LEDs provide you with critical information related to different parts of the system. This section explains what each LED indicates when illuminated and any corrective action you may need to take. HDD Indicates hard drive and/or DVD-ROM drive activity when flashing.
Introduction Power Fail Indicates a power supply module has failed. The second power supply module will take the load and keep the system running but the failed module will need to be replaced. This LED should be off when the system is operating normally. Drive Carrier LEDs The TVC-700 uses SATA drives. Each drive carrier has 2 LEDs: • Green: When illuminated, the green LED on the SATA drive carrier indicates drive activity.
Introduction Safety Warnings and Guidelines Electrical Safety Precautions Basic electrical safety precautions must be followed to protect yourself from harm and the TVC-700 from damage. Be aware of the locations of the power on/off switch on the chassis as well as the room’s emergency power-off switch, disconnection switch or electrical outlet. If an electrical accident occurs, you can then quickly remove power from the system. This product can be connected to an IT power distribution system.
Introduction Operating Precautions Care must be taken to assure that the chassis cover is in place when the TVC-700 is operating to assure proper cooling. Out of warranty damage to the system can occur if this practice is not strictly followed. Failure to comply may result in equipment damage.
