Chapter 2 - Connections

Power Connections

When all connections are complete, you’re ready to check the voltage switch, plug in the power cable, and power on the GTP-870HD.

Checking the Voltage Switch

1To prevent damage to your equipment, make sure the rear panel voltage switch is set correctly for your geographic region.

Select 120V for U.S. and Canada.

Select 230V for EU and Australia operation.

For other regions, check with your local au- thorities.

Connecting the Power Cable

1Connect the supplied power cable to the AC input and plug it into an electrical outlet.

Turning on the Power

1Turn the main power switch on.

Switch position (1) is on and (0) is off.

This switch effectively connects or discon- nects the GTP-870HD from the AC power source.
