NOTE

If you have a console switch box, refer to the switch box’s user
guide for instructions on connecting the keyboard, mouse, and
monitor.

CAUTION

The Keyboard and Mouse ports are both PS/2 ports, but are
not interchangeable. If you plug the keyboard into the Mouse
port, or the mouse into the Keyboard port, you will get an
error message and the system will not finish the boot process.

2. Use the power cord strain relief clamp to secure the power cord.

When connecting the HP NetServer to peripherals, use the cable ties and
labels that come with the product. See Figure 7-1.

3. If a LAN connector is provided, you may connect it now, or wait until you

have verified the NetServer’s operation.

Connecting the UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply)

1. If you do not have an UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) located near the

HP NetServer, move it near the NetServer to connect the two devices.

2. Connect the serial cable provided between the UPS and the HP NetServer.

Refer to the user guide included with the UPS for additional information.

3. If you have connected the serial cable between the two devices, turn on the

UPS.

The HP NetServer E 800 performs a diagnostic test when the power switch
is turned on. If an error condition occurs, note any error code appearing on
the display, then refer to Chapter 10, "Troubleshooting."
