PREPARATION
ADJUSTING OUTPUT VOLTAGE
Warning:
Your power adapter provides direct current (DC)
voltage. Do not use it with devices that are not specifically
identified as requiring DC voltage. Do not use it with devices
that require AC voltage. Damage to the device could result.
Caution:
Make the proper voltage setting before you connect
the power adapter to an input power source.
Follow these steps to adjust the output voltage.
1. Determine the required output voltage setting of the
power adapter by one of the following four methods:
• Refer to “Compatible Notebook Computers” on Page
22 for voltage, tip color, and polarity settings.
• Note the voltage indication marked next to the input
jack on the device to be powered. Example:
Vin =
18V
DC
or
18V DC
.
• Review the power or ID plate on the device to be pow-
ered. Look for the word
“INPUT”
followed by a number
and
V DC
. Example:
INPUT: 18V DC
