Tower computers:
Set voltage and connect the power cord:
a.
Examine the back of the computer tower.
b.
If your computer has a voltage selection
switch, set the voltage:
Always check the
voltage configuration at the rear of the
computer to ensure that it matches the site
voltage. Failure to properly set the voltage switch can damage the computer.
If your computer does not contain a voltage selection switch, it contains an
auto-sensing voltage selector and automatically detects the correct operating
voltage.
c.
Inside the US
: Use the power cord shipped with the computer.
Outside the US:
Locate the international voltage kit (PN603615) provided in
the instrument packing kit. Select the appropriate power cord (you can discard
remaining power cords).
IMPORTANT!
Outside the US, use the power cord from the international
voltage kit, not the power cord provided in the computer carton.
4.
Laptop computers:
Connect the power cord (laptop computer AC adaptors contain
an auto-sensing voltage detector and automatically detect the correct operating
voltage):
a.
Inside the US
: Use the power cord shipped with the computer.
Outside the US:
Locate the international voltage kit (PN4346883) provided in
the instrument packing kit. Select the appropriate power cord, then connect the
power cord between the AC adaptor and the laptop computer (you can discard
remaining power cords).
IMPORTANT!
Outside the US, use the power cord from the international
