Q31. Will the Equity It work in foreign countries?
A. Yes,
the Equity It computer can be used internationally by
selecting the appropriate input voltage on the voltage
selection switch located on the rear of the unit. It will
operate on either 115VAC or 230VAC at 50/60 Hz power.
One thing to be aware of is that the voltage on the power
outlet on the rear of the computer is the same as the input
voltage of the computer. If you have a monitor or other
device plugged into this outlet make sure it is capable of
operating on the same voltage and frequency that the
computer is connected to.
Most monitors and printers are not
set up to operate on dual voltages and will be damaged if
plugged into the wrong AC voltage.
This applies to the Epson
monitors and printers as well.
