Installation
Power Requirements
Warning: Do not connect any unit to a power source until installation is complete. If you require 230 VAC,
doublecheck the fuse holder orientation before use (the switcher is set to 230 VAC by default.
The fuse drawer must be rotated 180 degrees for 115 VAC. Applying power to the switcher with
the fuse holder in the wrong orientation can cause equipment damage and fire.
Switcher Power Requirements
The proper input voltage is supplied to the switcher by positioning the fuse holder in the proper orientation.
The switcher is delivered from the factory with the fuse holder in the correct position for 230 V. Perform the
following procedure to select 115 VAC or to verify that the fuse holder is correctly oriented for 230 VAC.
Note: The fuse holder contains a place for a spare fuse. Do not move the supplied fuse into the place for the
spare fuse.
1. Locate the fuse drawer on the right side of the switcher as shown in the figure above.
2. From the factory, the switcher is set to 230 VAC. If this is the proper input voltage fo
your application, your fuse holder label should appear with “230 VAC” at the top, as
shown in the figure to the right.
3. If you need 115 VAC as input voltage to the switcher, open the fuse holder using a
flathead screwdriver and pull the holder partly out. Then rotate the fuse holder 180
degrees so that “115 VAC” is shown at the top, as shown in the figure to the right.
4. Replace the fuse holder.
Use the appropriate power cord (115 VAC or 230 VAC) supplied with your switcher.
