3600 Series Flat Panel Industrial PC Chapter 2 – Installation 5. Attach one end of the power cord to the power receptacle on the unit and the other end to a properly grounded 115/230 VAC, 50-60 Hz outlet. 6. Turn on power to the system. The system will boot-up the installed operating system.
3600 Series Flat Panel Industrial PC Chapter 2 – Installation Power Management The following paragraphs explain the system power, the power supply, and the effects of excessive heat, electrical noise, and line voltage variation of the 3600 unit. Using isolation transformers on the incoming AC power line to the system is always a good practice.
3600 Series Flat Panel Industrial PC Chapter 2 – Installation In cases in which the installation is subject to unusual AC line variations, use a constant voltage transformer to prevent the system from shutting down too often. However, a first step toward the solution of the line variations is to correct any possible feed problem in the distribution system.
3600 Series Flat Panel Industrial PC Chapter 2 – Installation Figure 2–12. Internal View of a 3600 AC Power Connector 4. Insert the three wire ends of the power cable into the hole of the connector plug. Bend the Protective Earth ground (PE) wire, the neutral (N) wire, and the line (L) wire around the corresponding screw.
