It means it doesn't have the correct power to work.

You must plug in the PSU PCIe GPU Power cable to make the GPU to start and work correctly. Once you plug in the GPU Power cable the light should change to a different color indicating good power.

You can purchase Online GPU Power cable adapters to allow you to use one of your spare PSU power cables to connect to the GPU card.

With out the 6+2 pin cable

The GPU card won't boot up without the 6+2 cable installed. Thus it won't be recognized.
