Procedure
1. Connect the power cord supplied with the switch to the power connector on the back of the switch. Then plug
the power cord into a properly grounded electrical outlet.
The switches do not have a power switch. They are powered on when the power cord is connected to the
switch and to a power source. For safety, locate the power outlet near the switch installation.
If your installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the switch, be sure to use
a power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations for power cords in
your country/region. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the switch.
