AC Inlet Plug and a Power On Fail Indicator showing the Power Status LED indicating ready or fail Each fan within a PSFM is powered independently of the power supply within the Same PSFM So if the power supply of a PSFM fails the fan associated with that PSFM will continue to operate and cool the enclosure When the power cord connected from main power source is inserted to the AC Power Inlet the power status LED becomes RED When the switch of the PSFM is turned on the LED will turn GREEN When the Power On Fail LED is GREEN the PSFM is functioning normally 30 User Manual Fibre to SAS SATA RAID Subsystem NOTE Each PSFM has one Power Supply and one Fan PSFM 1 has Power l1 and Fan 1 and PSFM 2 has Power 2 and Fan 2 When the Power Supply of a PSFM fails the PSFM need not be removed from the slot if replacement is not yet available The fan will still work and provide necessary airflow inside the enclosure In replacing the failed PSFM refer to section 6 4 2 of this manual NOTE After replacing the Power Supply Fan Module and turning on x the Power On Off Switch of the PSFM the Power Supply will not power on immediately The Fans in the PSFM will spin up until the RPM becomes stable When Fan RPM is already stable the RAID controller will then power on the Power Supply This process takes more or less 30 seconds This safety measure helps prevent possible Power Supply overheating when the Fans cannot work
