AC Mains Power
The VXI-1200 AC input is both auto-voltage and auto-frequency
ranging, and requires no voltage switch selection.
The standard VXI-1200 is configured for 120 VAC operation. Should
it be necessary to replace the AC mains fuse (F400), refer to the
Removing and Replacing the AC Mains Fuse section in Chapter 5,
Maintenance.
Warning:
For your protection from electrical shock when operating at mains
frequencies greater than 63 Hz, connect the chassis safety ground
terminal to permanent earth ground. See Figure 2-5.
