Checking Power Voltage and Fuses

PowerScript ships with two fuses already installed. They are either 1 Amp, 250 Volt fuses
sufficient for 120VAC operation, or 0.75 Amp 250 Volt rating for operating at 220-
240VAC. Your PowerScript fuses have been installed to match the AC line voltage in the
country where you purchased the product. You can verify which fuses are installed by
examining the "Power Connector, Switch, and Fuse Box" on the rear panel. The AC line
voltage is indicated in a red box directly to the right of the On/Off switch.
To change the PowerScript fuses:

Providing Power to PowerScript

To provide power to PowerScript:
1
Orient the holes in the plug to the pins on the jack, then gently push the plug into the
jack.
2
Once you establish a solid connection, gently tighten the two thumb screws on either
side of the plug to secure the plug to the jack. Do not overtighten—finger-tight is suffi-
cient.
CAUTION
If you aren't sure whether your power source is 120 VAC or 220-240 VAC, check with
your local power company for the information. Normally, having the wrong fuses
installed only results in blown fuses—however, other damage might occur.
1
Turn off PowerScript.
2
Locate the Power Connector, Switch, and Fuse box at the left side of the rear panel,
then detach the power cord from the rear panel. (Refer to "Identifying PowerScript
Jacks and Panels" on page 5 for the location of items.)
3
Locate the small recess directly to the right of the red window on the rear panel.
4
Use a small-tipped screwdriver to pop-open the fuse door.
5
Once the door is open, slide the red fuse carrier out of the unit.
6
Replace the fuse or fuses as required.
7
Reassemble the fuse carrier and slide it back into the unit.
8
Replace the fuse box door.
9
Re-attach the power cord.
1
Locate the power cord in the PowerScript package.
2
Attach the female end of the power cord to the three-prong jack on the rear panel.
3
Plug the male end of the power cord into an appropriate power outlet.
4
Set the power switch to the On position, then check to make sure the green power light
on the front panel lights. If the light does not come on, check your connections on the
rear panel and at the power outlet.
5
Set the power switch to the Off position to turn PowerScript off.
