Reset Alarm Switch When one power supply module malfunctions, an audible alarm sounds indicating the loss of the power module. The alarm can be silenced by pressing the Reset Alarm switch, located next to the power connector on the power supply module. If this occurs, remove and replace the power supply module immediately. (LEDs on the Management Module and the power supply module itself also indicate power supply module failures.) Last Gasp Alarm The iMediaChassis series includes

Installing the iMediaChassis/20 Install the chassis first before installing any modules into an iMediaChassis. When installing the chassis, be sure to observe the following precautions to prevent electrical or mechanical damage: 1. Stay within the chassis’ power rating to prevent overload of supply circuits or damage to any overcurrent protection and supply wiring. 2. Maintain a reliable ground, especially when connecting to a power strip instead of directly to a branch circuit. 3. Pr

Wiring Instruction Guidelines for iMediaChassis/20-2DC 1. Connection of a suitable grounding conductor to the grounding terminal at each power supply module (a minimum 14AWG copper conductor should be suitable based on a 15A circuit breaker requirement). 2. Connection of suitable supply wiring to the plus and minus terminals at each power supply module (a minimum 14AWG copper conductors is considered suitable based on the 11A input maximum). The input terminal block at the power suppl

Installing SNMP Management and Application Modules To install a module: 1. Remove the blank bracket (if present) covering the slot where the module will be installed. IMC Networks recommends installing blank brackets in unused module slots. 2. Slide the module into the chassis using the card guides. 3. Secure the module to the chassis by tightening the captive screw. (Refer to the documentation shipped with the module for configuration information.) 4. When installing modules observe

Replacing Power Supply Modules User-Replaceable Power Supply Modules While power supply modules are redundant, failed power supply modules should promptly be replaced to maintain network integrity and prevent data loss. To replace a power supply module: 1. Disconnect the power source from the power supply module. 2. Remove the screws of the retainer plate (on some AC modules). 3. Move the Power Supply Release switch toward the right or unscrew captive release screw. 4. Before graspin
