3.6 Connecting the Power Cords The DSN-2100 storage system has a two power receptacles. Both must be used to connect the DSN-2100 to an AC outlet: 1. Plug the female end of the power cord into the 3-pronged power connectors on the back of the DSN-2100 storage system. Plug the other end of the power cord into a working AC outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch. 2. Repeat the previous step using the second power cable and power receptacle on the DSN-2100 storage system. For best results, all both power receptacles should be on a different circuit. Although the DSN-2100 storage system can operate temporarily with only two AC power connections, an audio alarm will sound until both power receptacles are used. 3.7 Powering-on the DSN-2100 Storage System To power-on the DSN-2100 storage system, press the power switch on the back panel.
