Hint: NVG1's interface requires a monitor resolution setting of at least 1280x1024.
1. Connect an external computer monitor to the any of the display port connectors on the backplate
(see Input/Output Connections).
2. Connect the mouse and keyboard to USB
ports also on the backplate.
3. Connect the power cord to NVG1's
backplate
4. Turn on the computer monitor.
5. Press the Power switch on NVG1's
faceplate (located behind the drop-down
door).
At this point, the blue Power LED ring will
illuminate, as the device boots up. (If this does
not happen, check your connections and retry).
Though not a requirement, we do strongly
recommend that you connect NVG1 using an
uninterruptable power supply (UPS), as for any
'mission critical' system.
Likewise, consider A/C "power conditioning", especially in situations
where local power is unreliable or 'noisy'. Surge protection is especially
important in some locales. Power conditioners can reduce wear on NVG1's power supplies and other
electronics, and provide a further measure of protection from surges, spikes, lightning and high voltage.
External computer accessories, network interfaces, and power are connected to the appropriate connectors
on NVG1's backplate.

A word about UPS devices:
'Modified sine wave' UPS devices are popular due to
low manufacturing costs. However, such units
should generally be viewed as being of low quality
and possibly inadequate to fully protect the system
from abnormal power events.
For a modest added cost, consider a "pure sine wave"
UPS. These units can be relied on to supply very
clean power, eliminating potential problems, and are
recommended for applications demanding high
reliability.
