Powering Up
Connection to AC Power
Power supply cords are intended to serve as the disconnect device. The user can power
down the device only by removing the two-power cords from the power source or the
device itself.
Make sure the wall socket outlet is installed near the equipment and that the socket is
easy to access. It is recommended that the wall socket outlet be connected to the
building installation protection.
