Can't Power Up after Outage

Came home to find my PowerEdge 1800 off after a power outage.  The system was on standby and is supported by battery backup which had expired.  Now it's not responding to any attempts to power up.  Is there a power reset switch somewhere?

    Hello,
     
    first of all, verify that no led error is present on Server (ESM led blink yellow or blue) flea led on motherboard (if present) fix (not off or blinking) and on power supplies statuts led (led green ok, yellow nok).
     
    If all leds are right, try remove power cord + power supplies from system, press on power button during 30 seconds to reset (and drain power). reinstall power supplies, plug power cord and check for leds, if all leds are ok, try to start system.
     
    There is no power switch, only drain function as described higher.
     
    Hope this help !
     
    Regards
    Dramba

    Dramba; Much thanks for responding. My PowerEdge 1800 doesn't seem to have any leds on my power supply. I don't see any lit LEDs anywhere. Also, what did you mean by remove power supplies from system? Can't I just unplug the power from the wall? Thanks again.
