INITIAL POWER-UP

To turn on the AMX-Series Power Source for the first time, the steps below are the
recommended order of operation.
LETHAL VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT AT THE OUTPUT TERMINALS OF THIS MACHINE!
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 will light up and
begin to display data.
3. Set the controller for the desired output voltage, frequency, phase angles, etc.
(Refer to the appropriate controller operation manual for details regarding adjustment
of output parameters.)
4. Set the OUTPUT POWER switch to the ON/AUTO position. The OUTPUT ENABLE
button of the UPC must be ON.
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 USER LOADS.
5. Verify proper voltage, frequency and waveform at the output terminal block. If the
output is not correct, set the proper output values. Refer to the controller manual for
details.
6. Once the correct output is 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.
