Power Receptacle
The universal power receptacle is in the lower left hand corner on the rear of the enclosure (FIG. 2).
Maximum power specifications are on the power receptacle. The power receptacle will accept all major
international standard power sources. (Standard US power cords are provided for installations within the
US.) The fuse is internal and is not field serviceable. If you believe the fuse needs to be replaced, contact
technical support (see page 39).
Expansion/Control Slots
Each enclosure has two expansion/control slots (FIG. 2) for expansion boards to increase functionality
and add new features to your system, such as an XNNet board for an Optima 2 RU enclosure or an
APWeb board for control over a LAN. If expansion boards are part of the original system, the boards are
installed at the factory. For information on expansion boards, including connectors and cabling/wiring
directions, see the specific expansion board's appendix in this manual.
