Up a Serial Connection to the Array on page 2-11.

If you plan to use the Remote Setup Wizard to configure the software, skip

this step.

The following sections describe the installation steps in detail. After completing

the hardware installation, see Chapter 3, Software Configuration.

Step 1: Connect the Array to Power

A PS6000 array includes two modules that supply both power and cooling. One

functioning power supply and cooling module connected to a source of power is

required for array operation.

Obtain the power cables that were shipped with the array. If the array was not

shipped with power cables, see your PS Series support provider or reseller for

power cable information.

Connect both power supply and cooling modules to a source of power. Use the

cable strain relief to secure each power cable to the array.

For increased availability, follow these power recommendations:

• Connect the power supply and cooling modules to different sources of power

on separate circuits. See Figure 2-4.

• Connect one power supply and cooling module to a UPS system and connect

the other module to a different source of power.

Notes: Do not turn on power to the array. At this time, the power cables are only

for grounding purposes.

See Environmental Requirements on page 2-5 for information about

voltage requirements.
