Axon 4000/8000 Electrical Power Requirements
This
document is intended to assist you in computing
the AC power requirements for your Axon and
related equipment. This equipment must be powered
by a dedicated electrical circuit. This is
an AC branch circuit that is used to power
only the Axon equipment. This circuit originates
at the power entrance to the building. Sharing
this circuit with other equipment will cause
problems such as account corruption, and service
interruptions.
Your Axon equipment must also be protected by
high quality surge protector. Failing to
provide surge protection will lead to equipment
damage due to high voltage surges on the
AC circuit.
We
recommend that you power your Axon equipment
from an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). This
will allow you to operate for a limited time
during periods of power outages. This document
will allow you to compute the power rating of
a UPS. The power hold up time (length of time
the equipment will be powered until the AC service
comes back on) should not be less than 30 minutes.
It is wise to extend this hold up time..
It
is possible to use this utility to record
new ‘system’ prompts. Record
the new system prompt into an unused account,
and replace the original system prompt by
copying or moving the newly recorded file.

Note:
(1) In the event of a power failure, turn as
many of these items off as possible. This will
extend the hold up time of your UPS.
(2) If you are not installing a UPS, this item
does not need to be on the dedicated AC circuit.
(3) You will need to provide some room lighting
for operator convenience. DO NOT depend upon
your UPS for this lighting. The system is sensitive
to the electrical noise generated by florescent
lighting.
