4. Installation
This Section provides further details regarding installation of the IPS unit.
4.1. Power Supply Connection
Connect the IPS unit to an appropriate power supply. Note that the IPS’s Main
Power switch must be "On" in order for the unit to operate.
CAUTIONS:
• Before attempting to install this unit, please review the warnings
and cautions listed at the front of the user's guide.
• This device should only be operated with the type of power
source indicated on the instrument nameplate. If you are not
sure of the type of power service available, please contact your
local power company.
• Reliable earthing (grounding) of this unit must be maintained.
Particular attention should be given to supply connections when
connecting to power strips, rather than directly to the branch
circuit.
4.1.1. Installing the Cable Keepers
The IPS includes cable keepers, which are designed to prevent the power
supply cables from being accidentally disconnected from the unit.
• IPS-1600-D20 and IPS-1600E-D20: Sixteen-plug units include pre-
installed cable keepers. When attaching the power supply cables to the
unit, first swing the cable keepers out of the way, then plug the power
cables securely into the power inputs. When the cables are in place, snap
the cable keepers over each plug to secure the cables to the unit.
• IPS-800-D20 and IPS-800E-D20: The cable keeper for eight-plug units
must be installed by the user.
1. First make certain that
both of the IPS's two power cables are
disconnected from the power source.
2. Use the screws supplied with the cable keeper kit to attach the
bottom plate to the underside of the IPS-800 unit as shown in
Figure 4.1. When properly attached, the bottom plate will protrude
about one inch beyond the edge of the IPS-800 unit.
3. Use the screws supplied with the cable keeper kit to loosely attach
the slider plate to the bottom plate as shown in Figure 4.1. Make
certain that the slider plate moves freely, ensuring that it can be
easily moved into position once the power cables are in place.
