  • Page 30: Connecting A High-Voltage Dc Power Cord

    Correctly orient the DC power cord connector with the power receptacle on the power supply, and insert the connector into the receptacle. The receptacle is foolproof. If you cannot insert the connector into the receptacle, re-orient the connector rather than use excessive force to push it in. Fasten the captive screws on the power cord connector with a screwdriver to secure the power cord connector.
