2In the rear of the pedestal, loosen the two retaining screws on the system monitor and remove it from the PDU.

3Configure the option switches for each system monitor. (See Circuit Card: Description and Installation (NN43001-311) for a detailed description of switch setting options.)

a.For a single-column system, configure the switches as shown in Table 7.

Note: Connect and cable the system monitor in a single-column system like a master system monitor for the rest of this procedure.
