Voltage selector

The switching power supply that came

with the system has a voltage selector

switch below the power socket. Use this

switch to select the appropriate voltage

according to the voltage supply in your

area.

If the voltage supply in your area is

100-127V, set the switch to 115V.

If the voltage supply in your area is

200-240V, set the switch to 230V.
