AC POWER SUPPLY CONTROLS AND INDICATORS

The illustration below details the AC Power Supply front panel. Air vents keep the unit from overheating. An On/Off switch turns the AC power circuitry on and off. The ON/OFF switch can also be used to reset the AC power after shutdown due to overvoltage, overload or over- temperature condition. The “On” status indicator lights when the AC power supply is on. The AC outlets (covered when not in use) supply power to AC appliances.
