Your PX3TS may have fuses and/or circuit breakers. Verify that all are firmly
seated or set to ON before connecting power.
The PX3TS inlets are labeled INLET 1 (I1) and INLET 2 (I2). INLET 1 is the factory
default preferred inlet, and INLET 2 is the factory default alternate inlet.
Tip: You can switch preferred and alternate inlets if needed. See
Transfer (on page 112).
To make power connections:
1. Connect PX3TS inlets to branch circuits.
2. Connect loads to PX3TS outlets.
3. Apply power to branch circuits.
To remotely administer the PX3TS, you must connect the PX3TS to your local
area network (LAN). PX3TS can be connected to a wired or wireless network.
Note: If your PX3TS will work as a master device in the bridging mode, you must
make a wired connection. See
Ethernet Connectivity (on page 27).
Ethernet port of PX3TS must be enabled for the described connection to work
properly, which has been enabled per default. See
page 311).
To make a wired connection:
1. Connect a standard network patch cable to the Ethernet port on the
PX3TS.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to your LAN.
