2-6  Connecting to Power  Optimux-106 Ver. 6.1 
2.6  Grounding 
Connect the protective ground to the ground pin of the power connector for both 
the AC and DC versions. 
This instrument may become dangerous if damage to the protective (grounding) 
conductor (inside or outside the instrument) occurs or if disconnecting the 
protective ground terminal. 
Before connecting any cable, the protective ground terminals of this instrument 
must be connected to the protective ground conductor of the power cord. The 
power plug shall only be inserted in a socket outlet provided with a protective 
ground contact. The protective action must not be negated by use of an 
extension cord (power cable) without a protective conductor (grounding). 
Whenever it is likely that the protection offered by fuses has been impaired, the 
instrument must be made inoperative and be secured against any unintended 
operation. 
The wide-range AC/DC power supply inside Optimux-106 accepts current from 
both AC and DC sources. From an AC source, the power supply can receive any 
voltage in the range of 100-240 VAC. From a DC source, the -48 VDC power 
supply can receive any voltage in the range of -40 to -72 VDC. 
When connecting the DC power, the PWR pin must be connected to the 
ungrounded line of the central battery (either − or +). The RTN pin must be 
connected to the grounded line of the central battery. The GND pin must be 
connected to the protected earth of the building installation. 
A qualified technician must perform the DC installation procedure. 
2.7  Connecting to Power 
Optimux-106 is supplied with a Wide Range AC/DC power supply. This unit is 
equipped with a standard AC-type 3-prong power input connector located on the 
unit rear panel. This power input connector can be used for both AC and DC 
voltage inputs. AC or DC power should be supplied to Optimux-106 through the 
5-feet (1.5m) standard power cable terminated by a standard 3-prong plug. 
³  To connect to AC power: 
1.  Connect the power cable to the connector on the Optimux-106 rear panel. 
2.  Connect the power cable to the electric outlet.
