Installation
Connection to the mains
Your new monitor is designed to operate from an ac mains supply of
220-240V at 50Hz. Stabilising circuits ensure satisfactory performance
within normal supply variations. If the mains voltage in your location is
different from this, please consult your dealer.
Warning: This apparatus must be earthed.
A suitable mains lead is supplied with the monitor. The female side of the
IEC320 connector plugs into the rear of the monitor, while the male side
must be connected to the mains outlet of your Acorn computer.
Some computers may not be equipped with a mains outlet, in which case
the mains lead for the monitor must be connected to a standard mains
supply outlet. An appropriate cable can be purchased separately, or the
lead supplied with the monitor can be altered.
Important: The wires in the mains lead for the apparatus are
coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green and yellow :
Earth
Blue
:
Neutral
Brown
:
Live
An appropriate and approved plug for your supply must be connected
to the mains lead. For UK operations the mains plug must be fitted
with a 3 amp fuse, ASTA approved to BS1362.
As the colours of the wires may not correspond with the coloured
markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
•
The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to
the terminal in the plug which is marked by one of the following:
the letter E
the safety earth symbol
the colour green
the colours green and yellow
•
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the
terminal which is marked with the letter N, or coloured black.
•
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the
terminal which is marked with the letter L, or coloured red.
