1 | Power button | Press this button to power on or power off
the appliance. Powering off the appliance with this button puts
the appliance in standby power mode. To completely power off the
appliance, you must disconnect the AC power cords from both power supplies. |
2 | Reset button | Functions identically to the UID button on the M-300 Appliance Front

is installed. When you push the UID button to enable the UID
feature, both the front-panel System information LED and the
back-panel UID LED illuminate bright blue to help you locate the
appliance when you move between opposite sides of the equipment
rack. Push the UID button again to deactivate these LEDs. |
