Installation Instructions:
1. The unit is factory set for 24VAC operation.
For 28VAC operation adjust unit prior to mounting and applying power as follows:
a. Open bottom of the unit by removing six (6) screws (Rack Mechanical Drawing & Dimensions, pg. 4).
b. Change the wire position so that the black wire [28V] is connected to the terminal marked [P] and
the yellow wire [24V] is connected to the terminal marked [S] (Fig. 1d, pg. 3).
c. After securing all wires for proper voltage place bottom panel back on the unit and fasten with the
six (6) screws.
2. Mount unit in the desired rack location (Space unit at least 3” from any video monitors).
Do not obstruct side air vents.
3. Set power disconnect circuit breaker to the OFF position (Fig. 1c, pg. 3).
4. Plug power cord into a grounded 115VAC 50/60 Hz receptacle (Fig. 1b, pg. 3), ground should be connected
as indicated in (Fig. 1e, pg. 3).
5. Set power disconnect circuit breaker to the RESET (ON) position and measure output voltage before
connecting devices (Fig. 1c, pg. 3). This helps avoiding potential damage. All terminals with common
suffix (P) “1P, 2P...” are the same polarity.
6. Set power disconnect circuit breaker to the OFF position (Fig. 1c, pg. 3).
7. Connect devices to the removable terminal blocks marked [1P & 1N] through [8P & 8N] (Fig. 1a, pg. 3).
When wiring is completed on the terminal blocks, they can be locked down by tightening screw flanges.
8. Upon completion of the wiring, set power disconnect circuit breaker to the RESET (ON) position
(Fig. 1c, pg. 3).

9. Green power LEDs on faceplate will illuminate when AC power is present. When an output is in a trouble
condition (blown fuse or tripped PTC) the corresponding LED will not be illuminated (Fig. 1, pg. 3):
a. Blown fuse (R2432300UL and R2432600UL) - Set power switch on the back of the unit to the OFF
position (Fig. 1c, pg. 3). Remove faceplate to access fuses. Replace with fuses rated @ 3.5A/250VA
(Altronix model # Fuse1).
b. Tripped PTC (R2432300ULCB and R2432600ULCB) - to reset PTC, set power switch on the back of
the unit to the OFF position. After approximately 30 sec. set power switch to the ON (RESET) position
(Fig. 1c, pg. 3).
10. Power switch with built-in circuit breaker:
OFF position - Switch not illuminated. Outputs not powered.
RESET (ON) position - Switch illuminated. Outputs powered.
Circuit breaker tripped - Switch not illuminated. Power LEDs on faceplate are not illuminated.
Outputs not powered.
To reset circuit breaker set power switch to the ON (RESET) position (Fig. 1c, pg. 3).
Note: Do not exceed units electrical load ratings as indicated in reference chart (pg. 2).
Do not place mechanical load on unit. Data racks should always be properly ventilated.
Unit is designed optimally for normal data room office installations.
CAUTION: Equipment to be installed / serviced by authorized / trained personnel only.
Shut branch circuit power before installing / servicing equipment.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture.
This installation should be made by qualified service personnel and should conform to
the National Electrical Code and all local codes.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user
to the presence of an insulated DANGEROUS VOLTAGE within the product’s enclosure that may
be of sufficient magnitude to constitute an electric shock.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of
important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying
the appliance.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock do not open
enclosure. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing
to qualified service personnel.
