Page 14: Step 5: Applying Power
Apply power. Power is provided to the “twister” unit from the desktop power supply module. This power module is equipped with a S760 hollow-type plug for insertion into the DC jack located on the back of the “twister” unit and standard IEC 320-type AC power receptacle. - Page 15 Upon receiving power, the “twister” media converter goes into normal operation mode and automatically provides the appropri- ate signal translation between the connected network segments. Be sure to verify correct segment connectivity via the LK (link) LEDs on the front of the unit. If an additional extension cord is used to connect the power module to the power source, the following guidelines must be followed.
