4. Installation

This section provides further details regarding the connections that

are made in the process of installing the IPS-15. For a brief

description of the overall installation procedure, and a connections

diagram, please refer to Section 3.

4.1. Power Supply Connection

Use the supplied power cord to connect the IPS-15 Master Unit to an

appropriate power supply. The Master Power Switch on the IPS

back panel must be "On" in order for the IPS to operate. Note that if

your installation will include optional IPS Satellite Units, then this

procedure should be repeated for each Satellite Unit in the chain.

CAUTIONS:

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.

Check nameplate ratings to ensure that there is no

overloading of supply circuits that could have an

effect on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.

4.2. Connection to Switched Outlets

Connect the power cord from the Switched Device to the Switched

AC Outlet on the IPS Master Unit's back panel. When the unit is

powered On, the Switched AC Outlet will be switched "ON" (this

also applies to the switched outlets on any optional IPS Satellite

units) . The Switched Outlet can switch up to 15 Amps AC. If your

installation will include IPS Satellite Units, then repeat this

procedure for each Satellite Unit.
