for initial testing and configuration.

Wiring Requirements

ATTENTION

Safety First!

Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or wiring your device.

Wiring Caution!

Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and common wire. Observe all electrical codes

dictating the

maximum current allowable for each wire size. If the current goes above the maximum ratings,

the wiring could overheat, causing serious damage to your equipment.

Temperature Caution!

Be careful when handling the device. When plugged in, the device’s internal components generate heat and the

casing may feel hot to the touch.

You should also pay attention to the following guidelines:

• Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power wiring and device wiring paths must

cross, make sure the wires are perpendicular at the intersection point.

NOTE: Do not run signal or communication wiring and power wiring in the same wire conduit. To avoid

interference, wires with different signal characteristics should be routed separately.

• Use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to determine which wires should be kept separate.

Generally, if different wires share similar electrical characteristics, they can be bundled together.

• Keep input wiring and output wiring separate.

• If possible, it is recommended that all device wiring be clearly labeled.
