Operating Your Vanguard 7300

This section explains how to power-up a Vanguard 7300 Series router. To power 
down your Vanguard 7300, set the power switch to the off position.

Before you begin, be sure to review all applicable warnings and cautions in the 
“Electrostatic Discharge Precautions” section on page 3-7.

Use the procedure in this table to power-up your Vanguard 7300:

When you apply power, the fan starts and the four LEDs on the front of the CPU 
activate. This table lists the LED values: 

Next, each pre-installed card displays power-up status on its own LEDs. During the 
power-up process, a series of messages appears on the operator console terminal.

Check that all the cards are fully inserted and secured.

Check that all empty or open slots are covered with slot panels.

Make sure the AC power cord(s) are plugged in. For all Vanguard 7300 
DC powered units, be sure that they are wired properly.

Flip the Vanguard 7300 AC or DC power switches to the on position. For 
DC powered units (Version 1) depress the circuit breaker switch. 

If you have two power modules, set the power switches to the on position.

Check that the fan(s) operate correctly.

Check the front panel displays for the proper LED sequences.
