Apply Power
The computer connects to either a 100…240V AC or 9…36V DC power source, depending on
the model.
We recommend that the computer circuit have its own disconnect. Use an uninterruptible power
source (UPS) to protect against unexpected power failure or power surges.
Always shut down the operating system before removing power to minimize performance
degradation and operating system failures.
Remove the AC retention clip, if necessary, before installing the computer in a panel cutout.
Reattach the clip after installing the computer.
Connect AC Power
A grounded 3-prong IEC320 power cord provides power to a computer with an AC power
input. The power supply input accepts 100…240V AC and is autoranging.
1.
Connect the power cord to the AC power input

.
2.
Secure it in place with the retention clip

.
Operate the computer in an industrial or control room environment, which uses some form of
power isolation from the public low-voltage mains.
SHOCK HAZARD:
Connect the AC power cord or the DC ground connection to a power source with
an earth ground to prevent electrical shock. Failure to follow this warning could result in electrical
shock.
TIP
If using an alternate IEC320 cord, make sure the female end of the cord is sized appropriately
for the retention clip.
