Unit installation

FCD-E1 1
Quick Start Guide
If you are familiar with the FCD-E1, use this guide to prepare it for operation, starting
from its factory-default configuration.
Preliminary Preparations
At this stage, do not connect any cables to the FCD-E1.
Before performing the preliminary preparation procedures described below,
review the safety precautions given in Section 2.1.
Connection to Power and Grounding
Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor (inside or outside the
device) or disconnecting the protective earth terminal can make the device
dangerous. Intentional interruption is prohibited.
AC power is supplied to the FCD-E1 through the 5-foot (1.5m) standard power
cable terminated in a standard 3-prong plug.
The connection of the FCD-E1 to a DC power source is permanent and is made by
means of a terminal block adapter that is inserted in the DC inlet.
The AC power cord plug must be inserted in an outlet provided with a protective
ground (earth) contact, whereas when using DC power it is necessary to ground
the AD grounding terminal. The protective action must not be negated by use of
an extension cord (power cable) without a protective conductor (grounding).
