Setup and Configuration

Before sending anything to the factory, call your High End Systems dealer/distributor for a Return Material Authorization (RMA) number. The factory cannot accept any goods shipped without an RMA number.

Replacing a Power Cord Cap

Axon ships with an IEC power cord. Different locations (even within the same country) may require a different power cord cap to connect the server to a power outlet. Because of the variety of power cord caps used worldwide, High End Systems, Inc. cannot make specific recommendations for the power cord cap. Contact a local authority for the type of power cord cap needed. When installing the power cord cap, note that the cores in the mains lead are colored according to the following code:

green and yellow = earth

blue = neutral

brown = live

Installing a Line Cord Cap - U.K. Only

In the United Kingdom, core colours in the mains lead of this equipment may not correspond with the colored markings identifying the terminals in the fixture’s plug. In that case, install a line cord cap according to the following code:

Connect the green and yellow core to the plug terminal marked with the letter “E,” or by the earth symbol or coloured green, or green and yellow.

Connect the blue core to the terminal marked with the letter “N” or coloured black.

Connect the brown core to the terminal marked with the letter “L” or coloured red.
