Just got in a CS1000, old 61c upgraded to rls 7.6 out of service from a customer’s warehouse. Supposedly it was a working system when they stored it about 7 months ago. It has the SS, Mail, & everything with it. My question for a quick test can’t I just connect power & a terminal to it and fire it up or do I have to connect everything servers and all? I ask because I tried and I get no activity at all on either CPU and no lights at all on either CNI. I also get nothing on the terminal of even attempting to do anything.

Power is all you need. If it's an AC switch you need 208V AC on a 30 amp twist lock plug. A safety ground would be wise also. Connect to J25 for the Core Terminal on the Active CPU. If you are getting no CNI lights I would be checking power, switches and cabling.

It's a DC and I get lights and the network side seems normal because you will see lights flash then go solid like it ran through a test. But the CPU side the lights just go RED on the NT4N48BA Utility card and that's it. You get a power light on the NT4N39 also but nothing on the CNI or nothing in the Display of the Utility Card.
