FIG. 20 Plug power cords into power receptacles

4.Plug the other end of each power cord into a power strip that is turned off (we recommend using a 30 A power strip).

5.Turn on the power strip and wait 30 seconds.

The Power indicator on the front of the panel illuminates green (both redundant power supplies are working). If only one power supply is working, the Power indicator will illuminate red (check power connections and switches).

6.Optional – Apply power to the external control device/system.

7.Apply power to the source and destination devices.

The LCD on the control panel illuminates and displays the menu screen.

8.The system is ready for a test switch (see page 30, “Executing a Test Switch”).

For startup information on specific types of control before executing a test switch, see page 30.
