Powering Up

Note: In this procedure we assume that the system is already connected to a power source.

For specifications of the electrical requirements for the system, see System Specifications.

Caution: Evaluate the overall loading of the branch circuit before you install any equipment into a rack.

To power up the system:

1. Verify that the power source is operational and turned on.
2. Inspect all grounding and power connections to the system.
3. Confirm that all connections are secure.
4. Push the PWR button.
5. Monitor the LEDs to verify that the system is booting properly.

   When the prompt appears on the system console, you can log in and configure the system.

See the Setting the Initial Configuration and SRC–PE CLI User Guide for more information.
