Connecting Safety Ground
The NI RMC-8354 is designed with a three-position NEMA 5-15 style plug
for the U.S. that connects the ground line to the chassis ground. To
minimize shock hazard, make sure the electrical power outlet you use to
power the chassis has an appropriate earth safety ground.
Connecting to Power Source
Attach input power through the rear AC inlet using the appropriate
AC power cable supplied.
Caution
Overloading the circuits may damage supply wiring. Do not exceed the ratings on
the equipment nameplate when connecting equipment to the supply circuit.
Caution
To completely remove power, you
must
disconnect the AC power cable.
The power switch allows you to power on the chassis or place it in standby
mode. Push the power switch to the On position (if not already on). Observe
that all fans become operational and the power indicator is lit.
