Using the Switch on a Flat Surface
The DGS-1052X comes with a set of adhesive rubber
feet which allow the switch to be placed on a flat
surface such as a desk or table, without risk of
damaging it. To attach the rubber feet, simply place
one in each corner of the bottom panel of the switch.

Grounding the Switch
This section will provide step-by-step instructions
on how to connect the switch to ground. This step
must be completed before powering on the switch.
Required tools and equipment for
grounding
• Grounding screw (included) and one M4x6
(metric) pan-head screw (not included).
• Grounding cable (not included). The grounding
cable should be sized according to local and
national installation requirements. Depending
on the power supply and system, a 12 to 6 AWG
copper conductor is required for installation.
Commercially available 6 AWG wire is
recommended. The length of the cable depends
on the proximity of the switch to proper
grounding facilities.
• A screwdriver (not included).
To ground the switch, follow the
instructions below:
1. Verify that the system is powered off.
2. Remove the grounding screw from the back of
the device and place the #8 terminal lug ring of
the grounding cable on top of the grounding
screw opening.
3. Insert the grounding screw back into the
grounding screw opening and use a screwdriver
to tighten the grounding screw, securing the
grounding cable to the switch.
4. Attach the terminal lug ring at the other end
of the grounding cable to an appropriate
grounding source.
5. Verify that the connection between the
grounding connector on the switch and the
grounding source is secure.
