Power On

To connect the system to the electrical supply:

S

Ensure that the wall outlet is a minimum 20 amp dedicated circuit for 120 VAC (USA) or 7.5
amp dedicated circuit for 220–240 VAC (Europe).

S

Make sure that the power switch is turned off.

S

Unwrap the power cable.  Make sure to allow sufficient slack in the cable so that the plug is
not pulled out of the wall if the system is moved slightly.

S

Push the power plug securely into the wall outlet.

To power on the system, ensure that the Circuit Breaker, located on the back of the power
supply near the bottom of the unit, is turned on.

Press the Power On Power Off/Stand-by switch, located to the left of the probe connectors, to
the on position.
