Setting up the IIOIS42 console or driver cabinet for 240-VAC
requires no changes. The power supply is autosensing. Refer to
for more power supply information. The color moni-
tor is autosensing and needs no changes for 240-VAC opera-
tion. Monitors other than those supplied by Elsag Bailey may
require changes. The CPU is also autosensing and needs no
changes for 240-VAC operation.
NOTE: If remote OICs are being installed, be sure they are powered
using the same power source and ground as the OIS console to
reduce the chance of communication problems on the ethernet net-
work. Failure to do so may cause data to be changed or lost.
The recommended minimum size for power wiring is 14-AWG
copper wire with a 600-volt, 75-degrees Celsius (167-degrees
Fahrenheit) rating and thermoplastic insulation. Wire with a
300-volt or 150-volt rating may be used if it is accepted by local
wiring codes. Wiring must be protected by cable trays or con-
duit and suited for the service voltage.
Power wiring to the console or driver cabinet must include a
third-wire grounding conductor. This grounding conductor
must not be a smaller gauge than the power wiring and must
be bare, green colored or green/yellow colored if insulated. The
grounding conductor must be terminated at the system safety
ground connection on the front of the power entry panel.
Over-current protection provided for the AC distribution must
be sized to allow for the inrush current required by the OIS
hardware. Refer to pecifications in
for peak inrush
current and duration for the OIS console or driver cabinet.
For more information on power wiring, grounding, line condi-
tioning and EMI (electromagnetic interference), refer to the
Site Planning and Preparation
instruction.
AC OUTLETS
There are two power entry panels used for the OIS. One is for
the OIS console, the other is for the OIS driver cabinet.
On the OIS console models, there are five AC outlets on the
power entry panel. Four are located on the rear; two for color
monitors, one for the power supply, and one for the blower or
auxiliary connection. The outlet on the front is marked periph-
eral power and is for the magnetic tape drive.
NOTE: Do not connect motors, lights or test equipment to the AC
outlets. Electrical noise may cause data to be lost or changed.
On the OIS driver cabinet models, there are also five AC outlets
on the power entry panel. Three are located on the rear of the
assembly and two are located on the front. They are all marked
A/C OUTLET.
