Before proceeding with the connection of power to the eXmux 3500 ensure that the main and
redundant power supply switches are in the “OFF” position, and that the power wires to be
installed are disconnected at their source.
•
All relay contacts are labeled in the de-energized position.

Ensure that the power supply(ies) installed in your eXmux 3500M will operate at the
available input power.
•
Follow all of your company’s policies and procedures regarding the installation of AC powered
or DC powered equipment. If there is a conflict between any procedure in this Quick Start
