Step 4: Applying Power
For AC powered NIDs, power up the device by inserting the provided power cord to an AC
outlet. During the boot-up stage, which may take up to 20 seconds, the LEDs will turn amber and
the STA LED will flash until the boot-up process is complete.
For DC powered NIDs, if a -48VDC power source is used, connect the grounding strap between
the Chassis Ground and the +VDC terminals. If connecting to a +48VDC source to the NID,
connect the grounding strap between the Chassis Ground and the –VDC terminals. With power
now applied, the unit will initiate the boot-up process. All LEDs in the front will flash amber and
the STA LED will flash until the boot-up process is complete.
