2.3 DC Power Connection
The standard option to connect a power source is a +12VDC, which is
used when power source is farther away (see Figure 2-3). In order to
make sure that you have a proper installation, please observe the
following:
1. YourAC jack has power.
2. The12VDCpowersupply is working.
3. Yourelectrical system has proper grounding (this ensures
that your power supply does not suffer from voltage
variations).
4. Power Surge Protection. This is optional, but highly
recommended. AUPS system provides voltageregularity
as well as prevents spikes from occurring, thus protecting
yourMini-HDMI-WPfromsensitive voltage conditions.
