ATTENTION: Federal Communications Commission (FCC) CLASS B Statement
CAUTION!
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

NOTICE:
Table 1-1, Term denitions
• The FlexPoint 1232-D and 1250-D power supplies utilize a 7-position connector to connect to the
ONT and an F-type coaxial connector cable for the output connection to the micro-node.
• The FlexPoint 1208-F power supply utilizes a F-type coaxial connector and cable for the output
connection to the micro-node.
1.2 Theory of operation
The FlexPoint 1232-D and 1250-D units are designed to supply power to both an ONT and a micro-node
with a total of 32W and 50W (respectively), via the 7-pin connector and the F-type coaxial connector. When
the F-type connector is used in conjunction with the 7-pin connector, power will be split between outputs with
a maximum of 9W delivered via the coaxial connector, and the balance of the unit’s power available on the
7-pin connector.
The FlexPoint 1208-F (FP1208-F) unit is an RFoG power supply providing 8W of 12Vdc primary and standby
power.
A customer-provided 90Vac to 264Vac, 50/60Hz power receptacle provides primary power to the input of the
unit. The AC voltage is then converted to a usable 12Vdc output. The power supply is to be installed within 8'
(2.4m) of an AC receptacle.
Current system operational status is provided to the customer via audible alarms and visual indicators. In the
event of loss of AC service, the duration of standby power is determined by the battery installed in the unit.

and operation, visit www.alpha.com and download a copy of the FlexPointTM 1215, 1232, 1250 Series Technical
Manual (p/n 010-353-B0).
The FlexPoint 1215, 1232 and 1250 units are optical network terminal (ONT) providing of 12Vdc primary and
standby power. A customer-provided 90Vac to 264Vac, 50/60Hz power receptacle provides primary power to the
input of the unit. The AC voltage is then converted to a usable 12Vdc output. Backup power and batteries are long
life, easy to replace, purchase, and install. Power status is provided to the customer via audible alarms and visual
indicators. Upon loss of AC service, the duration of standby power is determined by the battery installed in the unit.
1. Unpack and inspect the FlexPoint power supply.
2. Install the unit within 8' (2.4 m) to an AC outlet with 6" (15.2 cm) of space above and below, 2–4" (5–10 cm)
in front and 2" (5 cm) of space on either side to provide adequate thermal ventilation.
3.

4. Determine the necessary cable length to provide appropriate service loops between the unit, the ONT, and
the AC receptacle. Plug the line cord into the receptacle in the unit. Secure line cord at one of the cable
tie holes with one included cable tie. Do not plug the unit into an AC receptacle until the last step of the
installation procedure.
5. Determine output cable length. Connect cable into 7 position connector. Attach connector to header located
on back of unit. Route cable down provided channel. Secure the cable tie and the optional battery strap
through the unit.
6. Mount to the wall with #12 fasteners or equivalent, using the keyholes for easy mounting. For applications
with higher seismic requirements, use the round hole in the back of the unit for direct fastening to a stud or
other structural feature.
Installing and Connecting the FlexPoint Unit
•The unit is designed for use in an indoor environment protected from rain and snow. Its
operating temperature range is -10°C to 45°C / 14°F to 113°F (ambient).

3.0 Operation, continued
3.4 Operational modes
3.4.1 Normal mode
This mode is dened as a state where the load is being supplied from AC input, and the battery is oating,
charging or in the process of being tested.
When the unit is initially powered up, or whenever the input supply has been restored after an outage, the unit
operates in charge mode. Once the battery voltage has reached the full charge voltage, the unit switches to
oat mode. If the input voltage is less than the minimum AC input, the system switches to operating in back-
up mode.
After approximately 180 days of operation, the battery is automatically tested to determine whether it has
adequate capacity. It is tested when the following conditions are met:
The battery is operating in oat mode for 24 hours; and,
The battery is fully charged in the temperature between 5°C to 35°C / 40°F to 95°F for 24 hours.
The Replace battery alarm is not active (triggered if the power module charger is in accept mode for 1 hour
with the battery below 10.5V).
The Power module over voltage is not active (where the power module output is higher than the target by
500mV for 75 seconds).
If the above conditions are not met when the test becomes due, the test is postponed until those conditions
are met. If the AC input is lost, or the unit is overloaded during the battery test, it will be aborted and post-
poned until conditions are valid.
Once a battery test has been successfully executed, another test will be automatically scheduled to occur in
180 days, without regard to the test results.
3.4.2 Back-Up mode
The load is being supplied from the battery while the battery voltage is greater than 10.5Vdc. When the bat-
tery falls below this value, it is disconnected.
3.4.3 Charging mode
This maintains the battery at 100% capacity. After an AC outage, when AC is present, the charger continues
charging until one of the following occurs:
• Battery has reached 100% capacity.
• Charging is reduced to oat charge level. Normal BULK charge current is approximately 800mA.
• When in ACCEPT MODE the current falls below 150mA, the mode changes to FLOAT. In the event
the current does not reduce, the software triggers the mode change after 48 hours in ACCEPT
• Another power failure occurs requiring battery support.
No special action is required to restore normal operation once primary power is restored.
3.4.4 Mute mode
Pressing the Silence Alarm button puts the unit into Mute mode. In this mode the green Mute LED will
illuminate and remain illuminated until Silence Alarm is pressed again. Audible Alarm indicators will be
silenced, but all other alarm functionality remains the same, see Table 3-1.
