CONFIGURATION
DC POWER CONNECTIONw ready to power up the LBC-HDV-T and set up your
network connection. In order to make sure that you have a proper installation, please
observe the following:
1. Your AC jack has power.
2. The 24VDC power supply is working.
3. Your electrical system has proper grounding (this ensures that your power supply
does not suer from voltage variations).
4. Power Surge Protection. This is optional, but highly recommended. A UPS system
provides voltage regularity as well as prevents spikes from occurring, thus
protecting your LBC-HDV-T from sensitive voltage conditions.
The LBC-HDV-T derives power from an external 24VDC power supply. This power
supply is a wall mounted AC/DC adapter, 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz, at 1A. This power
supply comes standard for the LBC-HDV-T unless otherwise specified.
If you have any problems or concerns, regarding the installation, make sure that you
have taken the proper steps to ensure a proper power connection. Otherwise, feel free
to contact us for any questions you may have.

Connect one end of the Cat-x cable into the LBC-HDV-T-ICP HDBT port and the other
end into the LBC-H/O-R-ICP Cat-x In port. The LBC-H/O-R-ICP provides power to the
LBC-HDV-T-ICP over the HDBT connection, so the LBC-HDV-T-ICP does not need any
external power. Apply power to the LBC-H/O-R-ICP.
