## Connecting Power Supply

Verifone can provide a power supply for the UX115 device if required.

For more details on the usage of the power supply, contact Verifone representative. See [Accessories and Documentation](/hardware-products/hardware/engage-devices/ux1-3-4xx-series/ux1xx/ux115-installation-guide/service-and-support.md#accessories-and-documentation).

Attach and route all cables between the UX115 device and all peripheral units before connecting to the power source.

{% hint style="warning" %}
*L'utilisation d'une alimentation mal classé peut endommager l'appareil ou provoquer un dysfonctionnement.*

*Verifone recommande la PWR159-00X-01-A.*

*Voir les caractéristiques de l'information d'alimentation.*

Using an incorrectly rated power supply can damage the unit or cause it to malfunction.

Verifone recommends the PWR159-00X-01-A power packs.

See [Specifications](/hardware-products/hardware/engage-devices/ux1-3-4xx-series/ux1xx/ux115-installation-guide/specifications.md) for power supply information.

## Grounding UX115 Device

When the UX115 device is connected to the UX300/UX301/UX410 controller, it is important to ground the units.

{% hint style="info" %}
For cable ordering information, see [Accessories and Documentation](/hardware-products/hardware/engage-devices/ux1-3-4xx-series/ux1xx/ux115-installation-guide/service-and-support.md#accessories-and-documentation).
{% endhint %}

1. Remove a mounting nut, exposing a stud from the back of the UX115 device (do not remove the cable retainer nut). See Figure 7 (A).
2. Attach the grounding cable (VPN WIR159-302-01-A) from the UX115 Device to the UX300 and the grounding cable (VPN WIR159-302-02-A) from the UX115 device to a ground installation. See Figure 7 (B).

<figure><img src="/files/tIM5DRC1FYZ09paYStYl" alt="" width="563"><figcaption><p>Figure 7: Grounding UX115 device and UX300 Units</p></figcaption></figure>

3. Tighten the nut to secure the UX115 device.

{% hint style="info" %}
Tighten the nuts with a recommended torque of 5.0 kgf cm (0.49 Nm or 4.3 lbf in).
{% endhint %}

4. Remove a mounting nut, exposing a stud from the back of the UX300 unit.
5. On the UX300 unit stud, attach the other end of the grounding cable (VPN WIR159-302-01-A) from the UX115 and the second grounding cable (VPN WIR159-302-02-A, provided as a UX300 accessory) to a ground installation. See Figure 7 (B).
6. Tighten the nut to secure the UX300 device.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.verifone.com/hardware-products/hardware/engage-devices/ux1-3-4xx-series/ux1xx/ux115-installation-guide/setup.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
