Preparation for Use

In This Chapter

First you must set the 4263B to match the available power LINE voltage

,before turning the

4263B ON.

If the 4263B's power LINE voltage and frequency are properly set and ready to use

,you can

skip this chapter

Power Requirements

The 4263B's power source requirements are as follows:

LINE V

oltage

:100 /120 /220 /240 Vac (

10%)

LINE Frequency

:47 to 66 Hz

ower Consumption

:45 V

Amaximum

oSet P

oltage

1. Conrm that the power cable is disconnected.

2. Slide the LINE V

oltage selector on the rear panel to match the ac LINE voltage which will

be used (see T

4263B

To Set P

ower LINE Frequency

Note

In this manual, the BLUE shift key is expressed as ,the top of the key is

not labeled \blue".

1. Connect the power cable to the power cord receptacle on the rear panel.

2. Push the LINE switch in and the 4263B will emit abeep when it turns ON, and the self

tests will be performed. (If any message is displayed, see \Error Messages" at the back of

Operation manual.) The 4263B will be ready for operation after amessage like the following

is displayed.

3. Press .The following conguration menu is displayed.

4. Press until

Line

blinks

,then press .

A blinking item means that it is currently selected.

5. If the setting does not match the ac line frequency, press to toggle the setting

between

50 HZ

and

60 HZ

6. Press to set the line frequency.

7. Exit the congration menu by selecting

Exit

Note

The power line frequency setting is stored and is not changed after reset or

power-o. Once you set it, you do not need to set the line frequency again as

long as the same power line frequency is being used.
