Power connector

 

 

 

 

 

Plug the power cable into this connector.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Voltage selector switch

 

 

 

 

 

Before turning on the computer, make sure that the switch

 

 

 

 

 

 

is in the proper position for the correct power available.

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the United States, the utility power is supplied at a

 

 

 

 

 

 

nominal 115 volts at 60 Hz. The power supply is always

 

 

 

 

 

 

set to this when the computer is operating in the United

 

 

 

 

 

 

States. In other areas of the world, such as Europe, the

 

 

 

 

 

 

utility power is supplied at 230 volts at 50 Hz. If the

 

 

 

 

 

 

computer is operating in an environment such as this, the

 

 

 

 

 

 

voltage selector switch needs to be moved to 230.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mouse port

 

 

 

 

 

Plug a Personal System/2® (PS/2) mouse into this port.
