Connecting To The Power Source; Connecting Devices - MGE UPS Systems Rackmount PDU Guia De Instalacion

Getting Started
Attaching the Redundant unit (Switched PDUs only)
Connect the Redundant Switched PDU with the provided RJ12 crossover cable at the Link port on the Switched PDU.
NOTE: The overall length of the cable should not exceed 10 feet.

Connecting to the Power Source

To attach a power cord (units with detachable cordsets only):
1. Plug the female end of the power cord firmly into its connector at the base.
2. Use a screwdriver to tighten the two screws on the retention bracket.
To connect to the power source:
Plug the male end of the power cord into the AC power source.

Connecting Devices

To avoid the possibility of noise due to arcing:
1. Keep the device's on/off switch in the off position until after it is plugged into the outlet.
For Switched PDUs, log into the user interface and turn the outlets off before connecting the devices to the unit(s).
After connecting the devices, turn them on from the user interface.
2. Connect devices to the outlets.
On 230V units, install a retention clip for each outlet; Pull the prongs out slightly and insert them into holes on the
sides, then insert the device's power cord and snap the clip over the cord.
NOTE:
1. MGE UPS SYSTEMS recommends even distribution of attached devices across the all available outlets to avoid
exceeding any ratings limitations. See Power Ratings in the user manual more information.
2. The outlet retention clips provided with 230V units are designed for use with MGE UPS SYSTEMS's IEC 60320/C13
to IEC 60320/C14 cable and may not properly fit 3
Always disconnect the power supply cords before opening to avoid electrical shock.
