cord appropriate for your geographical location (see “AC Power Cord
Specifications for an MX150” on page 27).
To connect AC power to the device:
1. Squeeze the two sides of the power cord retainer clip and insert the L-shaped ends
of the wire clip into the holes in the bracket on each side of the AC power cord inlet
on the rear panel.
The power cord retainer clip extends out of the chassis by 3 in. (7.62 cms).
2. Locate the power cord or cords shipped with the device; the cords have plugs
appropriate for your geographical location. See “AC Power Cord Specifications for an
MX150” on page 27.
WARNING: Ensure that the power cord does not drape where people can
trip on it or block access to switch components.
3. Insert the coupler end of the power cord into the AC power cord inlet on the rear panel.
4. Push the power cord into the slot in the adjustment nut of the power cord retainer
clip. Turn the nut until it is tight against the base of the coupler and the slot in the nut
is turned 90° from the top of the device.
5. If the AC power source outlet has a power switch, set it to the off (0) position.
6. Insert the power cord plug into an AC power source outlet.
7. If the AC power source outlet has a power switch, set it to the on (|) position.
NOTE: The retainer brackets on your switch might be above and below the
power inlet rather than on either side.
