2.9 Connecting the Power
Before connecting any cable, the protective earth terminals of the
AC/DC adapter must be connected to the protective ground conductor
of the mains power cord. If you are using an extension cord (power
cable) make sure it is grounded as well. Ground the chassis of the
IDU-E, IDU-C and the AIND via the protective terminal.
Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor (inside or
outside the instrument) or disconnecting of the protective earth
terminal can make this unit dangerous. Intentional interruption is
prohibited.
Disconnection of the protective earth terminals is allowed only after
disconnection of the power and connectors ”Trunk-1” to ”Trunk-4.
Warning
Connecting Power to an IDU
Power is supplied to the WinLink1000 IDU via an external AC/DC
converter, which receives power from a 100–240 VAC source and
converts it to -48 VDC.
Æ
To connect power to the IDUs:
1. At site A, connect the 2-pin connector of the AC/DC converter to
the 2-pin DC power connector on the IDU rear panel.
2. Connect the AC/DC converter 3-prong plug to a mains outlet.
The unit turns on automatically upon connection to the mains.
The green PWR indicator turns on, and the IDU indicator blinks
orange for approximately 40 seconds during startup. See
Normal Indicators
section in Chapter 3.
After approximately 20 seconds the ODU starts beeping. The
beeps continue until the ODUs are aligned and the link set up.
3. Wait for approximately one minute, then repeat for Site B.
Connecting Power to an IDU-C and AIND
AC power is supplied to the WinLink1000 IDU-C through a standard 3-
prong plug.
