3.4.1 Connecting to Power
The monitoring system operates on AC power or on a charged internal battery.
Prior to connecting to power, perform a safety check of the equipment. Refer-
ence Periodic Safety Checks, p. 7-72.
To connect the AC power cable:
1. Ensure the AC outlet is properly grounded and supplies the specified voltage and
frequency (100-240V~ 50-60 Hz).
2. Connect the female connector end of the AC power cord to the AC power con-
nector on the monitoring system's rear panel.
3. Plug the male connector end of the AC power cord into a properly grounded AC
outlet.
4. If necessary, connect grounding wire.
• Connect the grounding wire connector to the rear panel’s equipotential terminal.
• Attach the clip end of the grounding wire to the grounding terminal on the wall.
5. Ensure the Battery Charge Indicator lights.
Note:
Even if the monitoring system is not turned on, the Battery Charge Indicator lights
when the AC power cord is connected into a mains outlet. Reference
Troubleshooting, p. 8-73, if the battery charging indicator does not light when
connected to power.
To troubleshoot an unlit Battery Charge Indicator:
1. Check the power cord.
2. Check the AC power inlet.
3. Check the power/ mains outlet.
4. Ensure the internal battery is properly installed and charged.
5. Contact a qualified service technician or a local supplier for assistance.
