packaged with your chassis before removing equipment covers or connecting or

before installing the hardware.
SCXI Chassis
1. Power off and unplug the chassis.
2. Set the chassis address if your chassis is addressable. Some older
chassis are not addressable.
• If the chassis has address switches, set the positions to off.
In Figure 2, all switches are shown in the off position.
• Some older chassis use jumpers inside the front panel instead of
chassis address switches. Older chassis also differ in fuses and
AC power selection. Refer to the chassis documentation for more
information.
3. Confirm the correct power settings (100, 120, 220, or 240 VAC).
4. Connect the power cord.
