PSU at a Polled Site
7-4
Issue 1 January 1997
Powering Up the Unit
1. Plug the PSU power cord into the “10-12VAC” jack and into a power outlet.
2.
To secure the cord, wind it one or two turns through the wire clip on the PSU back
panel.
3.
Turn the PSU “ON/OFF” switch to “ON”.
You should see the front panel “Power” light flash, then turn solid green. If
your communications system is passing SMDR, you should see the “Data In”
light flash as the PSU receives it.
Contact the hotline as instructed on the inside front cover if you are
experiencing difficulties.
