Checking power and wiring
The Business Communications Manager system is a global product. Therefore, you must ensure
that the power supply is correct for your location.
• 2.0 BCM1000 hardware has a standard power supply which requires manual adjustment for
the voltage by setting a switch located on the face of the power supply.
• 2.5 BCM1000 hardware has a standard power supplies and redundant power supplies which
adjust automatically to the required voltage.
Follow this procedure to check the voltage and wiring, and power up the system:
1 Check all wiring before connecting power to the BCM1000 units.
2 Connect the BCM1000 power cord to an electrical outlet that is a non-switchable, third wire
ground ac outlet.
If you use a power bar, plug the power cords into the power bar and connect the power bar to
the ac outlet.
3 Connect the BCM1000e power cord to an electrical outlet that is a non-switchable, third wire
ground ac outlet.
Warning: Connecting power
Always connect power to the BCM1000 and BCM1000e, if there is one, before you
reconnect the cabling to the front of the units.
Danger: Do not fasten power supply cords.
Do not fasten the BCM1000 or BCM1000e power supply cords to any building surface.
