2.
Strip 10 mm (0.4 in.) from the end of four different-colored wires.
3.
Press the spring connection tabs on the DC terminal block, and insert each
stripped end of wire according to the following table.
4.
Release the spring connection tabs after the stripped end of each wire has been
fully inserted in the appropriate terminal connection.

Connect DC Power
All VersaView DC powered models require a safety extra low voltage (SELV) power supply. The internal power supply is protected against reverse polarity.
To minimize ground loop currents and noise, Allen-Bradley® recommends that DC powered models use only one grounded connection. See
Install the Ground Wire on page 4
for the
ground connection on these models.
Computer Light-emitting Diode and Button Descriptions
Once power is supplied to the computer, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) signify the following.
IMPORTANT
Use stranded copper wire sized 1.5 mm
2
(16 AWG)
and certified for at least 85 °C operation.
ATTENTION:
When you connect power to the box PC or box thin client for the first time, these actions occur:
• The default UEFI setting automatically starts the computer after it is plugged into a power source.
• For VersaView 6300B box PCs with a Microsoft Windows® operating system (OS), you must read and accept an End User Setup procedure.
Do not disconnect power from the system until after the Windows Setup procedure is completed. If power is disconnected during this
procedure, it can result in a corrupted system image.
