4. At the router, connect the positive feed to the + (positive) terminal and the
negative feed to the - (negative) terminal. Tighten the terminals to between
0.6 and 0.8 Nm (0.041 to 0.055 pound-force per foot).
5. Ensure there are no exposed conductor strands.
6. Secure the supply cable (to the rack framework or similar object) so that the
connections are isolated from any force applied to the cable.
7. Ensure the circuit breaker (for the supply circuit) and the power switch (on
the router) are in the OFF position.
8. Connect the supply-cable wires to the circuit breaker.
9. Energise the circuit breaker.
10. Switch the power switch to the ON position. The System LED should light
for a few seconds as the router runs internal tests. If the LED continues to
flash or remains lit contact your authorised distributor or reseller.
DC models do not have RPS connectors.

Set the communication parameters on your terminal or terminal emulation
program to:
• Baud rate: 9600
• Data bits: 8
• Parity: None
• Stop bits: 1
• Flow control: Hardware
