9. CRPS power connectors (PWR1-2) These connectors are for CRPS power supply plugs. The power supply plugs are designed to fit these connectors in only one orientation. Find the proper orientation and push down firmly until the connectors completely fit. • Use of a PSU with a higher power output is recommended when configuring a system with more power-consuming devices. The system may become unstable or may not boot up if the power is inadequate.
10. MicroSD card slot (MSD1) The microSD card slot allows you to install a microSD memory card v2.00 (SDHC) / v3.00 (SDXC) to log BMC events. Disconnect all power (including redundant PSUs) from the existing system before you add or remove a memory card, then reboot the system to access the memory card.
