Chapter 2: Getting Started
Connecting the Power Cable
The power supply used with the VT5900-SA supports 100 - 240 VAC (Auto Sensing), but the
correct type of power cable needed for your installation should still be verified. The power cable
shipped with the VT5900-SA is a 120 VAC 3-conductor power cable for use in the United States
and Canada. This is the power cable that should be used with the VT5900-SA unless your
installation requires otherwise, in which case you should supply the appropriate power cable as
needed.
To connect the power cable to the VT5900-SA:
1. Connect the female end of the power cable to the power connector on the back panel of the
VT5900-SA.
2. Plug the male end of the power cable into the power source.
3. Switch on power to the VT5900-SA using the Power Switch located on the back panel of the
VT5900-SA. If using the AutoBaud feature, this is the point where that feature should be used.
The VT5900-SA then performs its POST and firmware initiation processes, which can be
viewed over a properly configured serial interface. These processes can take up to 90 seconds.
Once complete, the main menu should be accessible.
