     power supplies on the MediaDeck, ensure that separate, isolated power sources are

     available.  Connect AC cords to the two AC connectors on the MediaDeck.

1. If you are connecting to an automation system, make sure the power switch on the automation 

     system is off.  Attach an AC cord to the AC connector on the automation system.

3. Make sure that the power switch for the SystemManager Platform or client PC is off, and that the

    power switch for the Keyboard/Monitor Tray is off as well.  Attach an AC cord to the AC connector on

    your SystemManager Platform or client PC as well as your SystemManager Keyboard/Monitor Tray.
