Installing the TDR6
North American Applications
One cord has an IEC-compatible female plug on one end and a North American
male plug on the other. This cord is UL and CSA approved up to 125VAC at 10A.
This cord is ready to use with no user wiring required.
International Applications
The international cord has an IEC-compatible female plug on one end and three
stripped and tinned bare wires on the other end. This cord is approved by many
international safety agencies, including VDE, up to 250VAC at 6A.
Connecting to a Power Source
To connect to an AC power source, follow these steps:
1. Select an AC power cord. If an international power cord is selected, attach a
connector in accordance with local regulations and laws.
2. Ensure the TDR6 power switch is in the Off, or 0, position.
3. Connect the female plug of the AC power cord to the AC power receptacle on
the TDR6 rear panel.
4. Connect the male plug of the AC power cord to an external AC power
conditioning surge suppressor.
5. Connect the AC power conditioning surge suppressor to an AC outlet.
Corrupted AC input power can interrupt TDR6 operations and cause permanent damage to the unit.
You should purchase and install a commercially available, external AC power conditioning surge
suppressor to protect the TDR6 against power spikes and line transients.
Power-up Sequence
Once the cabling and interconnections for the TDR6 are completed, you may
power-up the unit. The TDR6 power switch is a rocker switch located on the rear
panel.
The power switch is labelled with a — and an 0. The — represents the On
position, while the 0 represents the Off position.
To power up the TDR6, press the power switch to the ON, or —, position. The
power-on cycle takes approximately three to four minutes to complete, as the unit
performs extensive self-diagnostics in this time period.
During the powered-up cycle, the TDR6 displays Initializing, the Power
LED illuminates green, and the Fault and Status LEDs may flash and illuminate.
After the unit is initialized, the LCD displays the Decoder main menu.
The TDR6 is initialized at the factory to the DVB-compliant configuration. You
can change to another default configuration or set your own operating
configuration.
