NOTE:
The AJA FS2 should be plugged into 3-wire 100-240 VAC 50/60 Hz power (autosensing) before
you make connections to other equipment. The AC cords provide a path to ground for
accidental static discharge to protect system equipment. The FS2 has two fully independent
and redundant power supplies and will operate with one or both AC power cords plugged
into the unit. However, fault-tolerance exists only if both power supplies are connected and
plugged into separate branch circuits. Then if power is lost on a branch or one of the supplies,
the FS2 will continue to operate on the remaining circuit and power supply.
Front Panel Description
The following topics present an overview of front panel controls and indicators to help
you get familiar with operating the FS2. For details about using the controls with
particular menus, please see
Chapter 4: Menus
.
Warning!
To meet safety regulations for leakage current and to ensure redundancy in the event
that a branch circuit breaker shuts off a branch, connect the FS2 dual power supplies
to separate branch circuits.
