TransCore Proprietary

4-7

Disconnecting power

1. Switch ON/OFF switch in “OFF” position and ensure “PWR ON” LED is not illuminated.

2. Unlatch connector

3. Gently remove plug from receptacle.

Protective Earth Ground Terminal

For safety and proper operation, the 1422E must be properly fastened to a protective earth
ground. The ground stud is located on the front panel of the 1422E between the power
connector and ON/OFF switch.
