Please examine your AES Switcher Sentinel 2+1® carefully for any damage that

Installation
CAUTION! Installation of the AES Switcher Sentinel 2+1® in high RF envi-
ronments should be performed with care. The station ground should be con-
nected to the “Chs Gnd” chassis ground screw.
Surge Protection
The AES Switcher Sentinel 2+1® has built-in resistance to voltage changes; we rec-
ommend that you use a power surge protector or line conditioner on the incoming
AC line. Lightning strikes and/or other high voltage surges may damage your AES
Switcher Sentinel 2+1® and connected equipment if it is not properly protected. For
lightning protection devices, check out www.polyphaser.com and www.itwlinx.com.
UPS Standby Power System
We recommend that you connect your AES Switcher Sentinel 2+1® to a UPS sys-
tem. A UPS helps minimize the risk to the AES Switcher Sentinel 2+1® and pro-
vides AC power during a power outage.
POWER: +/- 15 VDC power connector
Connect the 3-pin AMP-style latching power connector to the unit and the included
+/-15 VDC switching power supply with domestic connector into a 120 Vac 50-60
Hz power source. Never use any type of power supply other than the specified/sup-
plied (PS-1515-IEC) power supply.
NOTE: Never use any type of power supply other than the specified/supplied
power supply.
