Installation and Configuration HEXRCHardware Manual
2.2.1. ACPower Connections
AC input power to the HEXRC is applied to the AC power receptacle that is located on the rear panel. The
power cord connected to this receptacle also provides the protective earth ground connection and may serve
as a Mains disconnect. The main power switch is located on the front panel of the HEXRC. The main power
switch also functions as a 10 A breaker (supplementary protection only) for the incoming AC power. Refer to
Section 1.1. for the electrical specifications.
The HEXRC drive chassis is factory-configured for one of four specified input voltages. The factory
configured AC input voltages, along with the current requirements for the HEXRC drive chassis, are listed in
Table 2-1.

Environmental conditions may necessitate the need to meet additional AC wiring requirements or
specifications. AC wiring should not be bundled with signal wiring to minimize EMI coupling and
interference.
