Setting Up the System

1. Open the case’s lids and front door.
Pull out and turn the front and back latches
counterclockwise. Lift the center handle to open the first
lid. Then open the other lid.
2. Determine whether to remove the base unit.
• If possible, leave the base unit in the case.
• If necessary for your application, remove the base
unit.
3. Verify safe powering and grounding. See “Safe Powering and Grounding” on page23.
4. Connect to AC power, or attach battery.
• If using AC power, plug the power cord into a grounded 110 or 220 VAC outlet.
• If using battery for powering or backup, make sure battery is installed.
5. Turn on the power switch.
Caution If you leave the base unit in the case, leave the front door open to
prevent overheating. It is recommended that you also leave the lids open.
If you remove the base unit, verify that no accessories or cords are installed
in any of the connectors on the front panel. Otherwise, damage might occur.
