2 Installing the Equipment
2.1 Introduction
For best performance and reliability follow the instructions for site
requirements and installation in the Reference Guide and only use
installation accessories recommended by the manufacturers.
2.2 Operating Voltage
AC models are fitted with a wide-ranging power supply. It is suitable for
supply voltages of 100-120 Vac -10% +6% or 220-240 Vac -10% +6%
at 50/60 Hz nominal.
CAUTION
This product should be operated only from the type of power source
indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power
supply to your business, consult a qualified electrical engineer or your
local power company.
NOTE
Refer to the Reference Guide for details of the colour codes used on
the mains leads.
See Table 2.2 for fuse information and also the Reference Guide for a
full power supply specification.
2.3 Power Cable and Earthing
Check that the power cable is suitable for the country in which the
Encoder is to be used.
WARNINGS
1. The Technical Earth is not a Protective earth for electric shock
protection.
2. This unit must be correctly earthed through the moulded plug
supplied. If the local mains supply does not have an earth
conductor do not connect the unit. Contact Customer Services
for advice.
3. Before connecting the unit to the supply, check the supply
requirements in Annex B of the Reference Guide.

2.4 Power Supply Stand-by Switch
This switch puts the Encoder into stand-by mode. It powers down the
supply rails of the display and internal circuits within the unit. The
switch type avoids accidental powering-down of the Encoder. For normal
use, using a screwdriver, ensure that the Iis always at the top (see
Figure 2.1).
NOTES
1. This product should be operated only from the type of power
source indicated on the marking label.
2. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your
business, consult a qualified electrical engineer or your local
power company.
WARNING
This is NOT a mains switch and will not isolate the Encoder from the
power supply. Disconnect the power cord to isolate the unit.

2.5 Connecting Up the Basic Encoder
Always use the specified cables supplied for signal integrity and
compliance with EMC requirements (see the Reference Guide).
Only those connectors used are labelled in Figure 2.2, Figure 2.3 and
described in Table 2.1.
