Voltages

Note — In some countries, it may be necessary to supply the correct mains supply cord. Use only an approved IEC 320 C-13 type A/C line cord rated for a minimum 10A at 250V and certified for the country of use.

Further, the safe operation of this product requires that a protective earth connection be provided. This protective earth is provided by the grounding conductor in the equipment’s supply cord. To reduce the risk of electrical shock to operator and service personnel, this ground conductor must be connected to an earthed ground.

Rear I/O Modules

Depending on the frame model you purchased, there may be variations in the BNC rear I/O modules connected to it. If the frame was ordered with cards requiring custom rear I/O modules, the appropriate modules will be installed at the factory or included with the card modules.

•8310 and 8310-Cframes come without a 100-BNC rear I/O module. Cards ordered with these frames require rear I/O modules tailored to the card.

•8310-BNCand 8310-C-BNCframes come with fixed 100-BNC rear I/O module.

Consult the installation section of each card’s manual for BNC designations. Each card comes with a BNC label to place on the frame’s BNC rear I/O module. Each card also has BNC designations printed on the card PCB.
