CONSOLE POWER CONNECTION
✦ The Console is powered by a low voltage plug-in
transformer.
✦ Use up to 25 feet of 20 AWG or larger
two-conductor wire to connect the transformer to
the Console.
1. Route the power wires from the plug-in transformer
to the Console.
2. Connect the wires to the transformer terminals (do
not plug the transformer in until the wiring is
complete).
3. Route the power wires through the Console's wiring
access hole.
4. Connect the power wires from the transformer
to the Console's main terminal block AC & AC
terminals.
5. Secure all of the wires entering the Console with a
zip-tie to the Console’s strain relief loop.
6. Plug transformer into an unswitched AC outlet.
7. Secure transformer with screw to prevent
unplugging.
BACKUP BATTERY INSTALLATION (OPTIONAL)
✦ A 12-volt backup battery may be installed and is
highly recommended.
✦ The backup battery will power the Console for up to
6 hours during AC power loss.
✦ The backup battery is automatically charged by the
Console when AC power is present.
✦ A low backup battery will cause the Console POWER
indicator to fl ash as it is being charged.
1. To install the battery, slide the battery between the
retaining clamps and under the battery holder.
2. Position the battery until the clamps snap in place.
The battery terminals should be facing the center of
the Console case bottom.
3. Connect the black battery lead to the negative
battery terminal.
4. Connect the red battery lead to the positive battery
terminal.
