Installation Guide 11
Apply Power
Power is applied to the “twister” through the desktop power supply. To
apply power, do the following:
1. Connect the power cord (not included with international shipments) to
the AC receptacle on the power supply.
2. Connect the power supply to the DC input power jack located on the
back of the “twister”.
3. The “twister” is designed with built-in cable
management and protection. Turn the unit
upside-down and route the DC power cord
into one of the two channels located on each
side of the unit. See diagram.
4. Plug the power cord into an AC wall outlet.
Upon receiving power, the power (PWR)
LED turns green, and the “twister” automati-
cally goes into operation providing the
appropriate signal translation between
connected network segments.
5. Verify valid connections via
the link (LK) LEDs,
which should be lit.
If an additional
extension cord is
needed to connect the
power supply to the outlet, use the guidelines below. While one end of
the AC power cord can be fitted with a plug standard for the country of
operation, the end that connects to the Metrobility power supply must
have a female plug that fits the following type of AC receptacle:
•
AC 115V (North America): Use a UL-listed and CSA-certified cord set
consisting of a minimum of No. 18 AWG, type SVT or SJT three-
conductor cord (5 feet maximum length) and a parallel blade ground-
ing-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 (15 feet maximum
length) and a Tandem blade grounding-type attachment plug rated
15A, 250V.
