Power Supply Setup

The KX III provides dual power supplies, and can automatically detect and provide notification regarding the status of these power supplies. Use the Power Supply Setup page to specify whether you are using one or both of the power supplies. Proper configuration ensures that the KX III sends the appropriate notifications should a power supply fail. For example, if power supply number one fails, the power LED at the front of the unit will turn red.

• To enable automatic detection for the power supplies in use:

1. Choose Device Settings > Power Supply Setup. The Power Supply Setup page opens.

   

2. If you are plugging power input into power supply number one (left-most power supply at the back of the unit), then select the Powerln1 Auto Detect option.
3. If you are plugging power input into power supply number two (right-most power supply at the back of the unit), then select the Powerln2 Auto Detect option.
4. Click OK.

Note: If either of these checkboxes is selected and power input is not actually connected, the power LED at the front of the unit turns red.

• To turn off the automatic detection:
  • Deselect the checkbox for the appropriate power supply.
• To reset to factory defaults:

• Click Reset To Defaults.

Note: The KX III does NOT report power supply status to CommandCenter. Dominion I (generation 1), however, does report power supply status to CommandCenter.
