Be sure to verify correct segment connectivity via the link (LK) LEDs on
the front of the unit.

If an additional extension cord is used to connect the power module to the
power source, the following guidelines must be followed.

While one end of the AC power cord can be fitted with whatever  plug
is standard for the country of operation, the end that connects to the
Metrobility power supply module must have a female plug that fits this
type of AC receptacle.

• AC 115V (North American): use a UL-listed and CSA-certified cord

set consisting of a minimum 18 AWG, type SVT or SJT three-
conductor cord, a maximum of 15 feet in length and a parallel blade,
grounding-type attachment plug rated 15A, 125V.

• AC 230V (USA): use a UL-listed cord set consisting of a minimum

No. 18 AWG, type SVT three-conductor cord, a maximum of 15 feet
in length and a Tandem blade grounding-type attachment plug rated
15A, 250V.

• 240V (outside USA): use a cord set consisting of a minimum No. 18

AWG cord and grounding-type attachment plug rated 15A, 250V. The
cord set should have the appropriate safety approvals for the country
in which the 2131 is installed and marked HAR.
