Step 4 - Connect the M9505A AXIe Chassis to a Power Supply
Ensure that the sum of power consumed by all modules should not exceed
the max DC power delivered from the AXIe Chassis. In this case, the
module connected at the last may not be turned on.
You can use an external power supply, typically AC power mains.
1 The instrument module uses the power supplied by the M9505A AXIe
Chassis in which it is installed. The M9505A AXIe Chassis power cord
comes with the chassis shipment. Insert the power cord into the inlet
at the rear of the chassis.
2 Connect the cord to an appropriate AC power main.
3 Push the circuit breaker to the right, which is the ON position.
