4.2  INITIAL POWER-UP 

 

 

This paragraph describes the procedure used to power-on the ACX Power Source for the first 

time.  The steps below are the recommended order of operation. 

 

1.  For new installations, check input connections (including proper input voltage).  Do not connect 

the load at this time.  Also verify that the OUTPUT POWER switch is in the OFF position. 

2.  Switch the INPUT POWER switch to the ON position.  The controller display will light up and begin 

to present output data.  

3.  Set the controller for the desired output voltage, frequency, etc. 

 (Refer to the UPC Operation Manual for adjustment of output parameters.)  

4.  Set  the  OUTPUT  POWER  switch  of  the  ACX  to  the  ON/AUTO  position  and  press  the  UPC 

OUTPUT ENABLE switch to set it to the ON position. 

 

 

        CAUTION 

     PRECAUTION 

DO NOT CONNECT ANY LOADS TO THE OUTPUT OF THE POWER SOURCE UNTIL THE OUTPUT 

VOLTAGE AND FREQUENCY HAVE BEEN VERIFIED AS CORRECT. 

 

APPLICATION OF IMPROPER VOLTAGE OR FREQUENCY CAN DAMAGE LOADS. 

 

NE RACCORDER AUCUNE CHARGE SUR LA SORTIE DE L’EQUIPEMENT SANS AVOIR AU PREALABLE 

VERIFIE ET VALIDE LES PARAMETRES DE SORTIE TENSION ET FREQUENCE 

 

L’APPLICATION DE TENSION ET FREQUENCE INCORRECTES PEUT ENDOMMAGER LES CHARGES 

CONNECTEES A L’EQUIPEMENT 

 

5.  Verify proper voltage, frequency and waveform at the output terminal block.  If the output is not 

correct, set the output to proper values.  Refer to the controller manual for details.  

6.  When the desired output has been verified, turn the system OFF by first setting the OUTPUT 

POWER SWITCH to the OFF position and then opening the INPUT POWER SWITCH.  Connect 

the load.  

7.  Re-start the unit beginning at step 2, above. Verify that the system delivers power to the load.
