Polycom Pano Power
Powering your system on and off is a simple procedure. Make sure the system is powered off before you
connect devices to it. After you have connected all of the related equipment that you intend to use, connect
the power on the system.
It is important to note that Polycom Pano systems are designed to stay in a wake state and do not have a
power button.
Power On the Polycom Pano System
After setting up your system, you need to power on the Polycom Pano system.
Procedure
1 Use the HDMI cable to connect the Polycom Pano system to the monitor.
2 Connect the touch monitor USB cable.
3 Connect the power cord to the Polycom Pano system or connect the LAN cable to
power on the system by Power over Ethernet (PoE).

The Polycom splash screen displays within several seconds.
Power On Self Test (POST)
After being powered on, Polycom Pano systems automatically perform system health checks before the
systems are 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.
