X-Series Indicator Reference

Power Supply Indicators

LED IndicatorDescription
Green (Solid)A valid power source is connected to the PSU and the PSU is operational.
Amber (Blinking)Indicates an issue with the PSU.
Not LitPower is not connected to the PSU.
Green (Blinking)PSU firmware is being updated.

WARNING: Do not disconnect power or unplug the PSU while firmware is updating. Interruption of this process could lead to PSUs ceasing to function.
Green (Blinking and powers off)When hot-plugging a PSU, it will blink 5 times at a rate of 4Hz then power off. This indicates a mismatch due to efficiency, features, health status, or supported voltage.

WARNING: If two PSUs are installed, both PSUs must have the same type of label. Mixing PSUs is not supported, even if they have the same power rating.

WARNING: If two identical PSUs receive different input voltages, this can cause different output wattage and trigger a mismatch.

CORRECTION: When correcting a PSU mismatch, remove all power from the system then replace the PSU with the blinking indicator.
