Use a cable tie to bind the wires.
Use at least four cable ties spaced at four-inch intervals. Place the first tie within six inches of
the terminal block. Position the bound wires to prevent accidental contact when passing by the
system.

Secure one end of the ground wire (18 AWG) to either the ground post adjacent to the terminal
block or terminal 5 of the terminal block.

AC Power
This section describes how to connect AC power to a Tasman system.
ESD:
Before connecting cables or performing maintenance on a Tasman system, always wear an
ESD-preventative wrist strap. Connect the banana plug to the ESD ground connector on the system
chassis. Make sure that the wrist strap makes contact with your skin.
Single AC Power
To connect AC power:
1
Insert the female end of the AC power cord in the AC receptacle on the back panel of the
Tasman system.
Figure 22 Connecting the AC Power Cord
2
Insert the male end of the power cord in a nearby standard 110/220 VAC power outlet.
CAUTION:
Only use the AC power cord supplied by Tasman Networks. Do not use an extension cord.
Dual AC Power
Tasman Networks provides a solution for customers who need to power their Tasman systems from
two independent AC power sources. This procedure outlines the steps to install the Dual AC Power
Kit.
To connect dual AC power:
1
Before proceeding, inspect the contents of the kit. The kit includes the following:
Two AC/DC power supplies
Two hook and loop (Velcro) adhesive mounting pads
Two Velcro straps for securing coiled cables
Two AC power cords
2
If this is a new system installation, first mount the system in an equipment rack. Follow the
procedures outlined previously in this installation guide.
3
Determine the appropriate mounting location for the AC/DC power supplies.
