Installation; Power Cable (And Cable Keeper) Connection - Black Box PS568A User Manual

3.1 Power Cable (and Cable Keeper) Connection

The Rackmount Remote Power Manager includes cable keepers, which are
designed to prevent the power supply cables from being accidentally disconnected
from the power manager. The Rackmount Remote Power Manager (PS568A or
PS582A) requires that you install the cable keepers. The Rackmount Remote
Power Manager 16 (PS569A or PS583A) includes pre-installed cable keepers.
The power manager's master power switch must be on for the unit to
operate.
• Before attempting to install the power manager, review the warnings
and cautions listed on page 5.
• This device should be operated only with the type of power source
indicated on the instrument nameplate. If you are not sure of the type
of power service available, contact your local power company.
• Maintain reliable grounding of the power manager. Pay particular
attention to supply connections when connecting to power strips,
rather than directly to the branch circuit.
To install the cable keepers and power cables on the PS568A or PS582A, follow
these steps:
1. First, make sure that both of the power manager's power cables are
disconnected from the power supply.
2. Next, loosen (but do not remove) the retaining screws located adjacent to the
power inlets.
3. The Rackmount Remote Power Manager has two separate AC inputs.
Connect the power cables (included) to the Power Manager's Bus A and Bus
B power inlets, then slip a cable keeper under each supply cable so the
notches at the top of the keepers line up with each cable, and the two slots on
the bottom of the keepers slide under the loosened retaining screws.
4. Tighten the retaining screws to secure the cable keepers to the power
manager, and make certain that the cables are secure.
