Orient the blade so that the blade handle is on the left side of the blade.CAUTION: If you are installing a full-height blade in bays 3 or 4 or a half-height blade in bays 11 or 12, rotatethe LCD module to the horizontal storage position to prevent accidental damage to the LCD screen.3. To install a full-height blade or a half-height blade in bays 1 through 8, align the guide rail on the upper edge of theblade so that the rail fits between the plastic guides on the enclosure.4. To install a half-height blade in one of the eight lower bays (bays 9 through 16), align the edge of the blade with theguide rail on the floor of the M1000e enclosure.5. Slide the blade into the enclosure until the handle engages and locks the blade in place.Power Supply ModulesThe Dell PowerEdge M1000e enclosure supports up to six hot-swappable power supply modules, accessible from theenclosure back panel.NOTE: The power supply modules have internal fans that provide thermal cooling to these modules. A powersupply module must be replaced if an internal fan failure occurs.The CMC module controls power management for the system. You can program the CMC to configure the power budget,redundancy, and dynamic power of the entire enclosure (chassis, servers, I/O modules, iKVM, CMC, and powersupplies). The power management service optimizes power consumption and re-allocates power to different modulesbased on real-time demand. For more information, see the CMC User's Guide at support.dell.com/manuals.NOTE: The wattage of a power supply module is listed on its regulatory label.Power Supply BlanksIf the M1000e enclosure is operated with only three power supplies, power supply blanks must be installed in the threeunoccupied power supply bays (4 through 6) to maintain proper cooling airflow in the enclosure.AC Power Supply ModulesNOTE: A 2700 W power supply module requires 110 V to 240 V input from an AC power source. If a power supplymodule is plugged into a 110 V electrical outlet, the power supply operates at 1350 W, if you select the Allow 110VAC Operation check box in the CMC Power Configuration screen.NOTE: PDU inlet cords for this system may be too thick to fit in the wire guides installed in the rack vertical rails. Ifthis is the case, remove the wire guides by removing the attachment screw securing each guide. Route the PDUinlet cords along the vertical rails, securing them with tie wraps or strips.71
