5.0 DC POWER CONNECTION
Inordertomakesure that you have a proper installation,pleaseobserve
thefollowing:
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 suffer from voltage variations).
4. PowerSurge Protection.Thisisoptional,buthighlyrecommended.
A UPS system provides voltage regularity as well as prevents
spikes from occurring, thus protecting your LBC-PSW84 from
sensitivevoltage conditions.
TheLBC-PSW84derivespowerfrom an external 24VDC power supply.
Thispowersupply is a wallmountedAC/DC adapter,100-240 VAC,50-
60Hz, at 2.7A. Thispower supply comes standardfor the LBC-PSW84
unlessotherwisespecified.ToprovidepowertotheLBC-PSW84,simply
connectthe power cord,already provided withthe units, andconnect it
tothe wall jack. (Youwill find one power cord per unit). Once the power
cord has been connected to the wall jack, connect 24VDC to the unit
and the unit should power up immediately flipping the power toggle
swtich.Ifyouhaveanyproblemsorconcerns, 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
youmay have.
Note 1: During installation, the installer may need to connect
the power supply output to an appropriate Listed NEC type
cablebeforeitis routed behind a wall. Simply routing thepower
supply output cable behind a wall will most likely not comply
with applicable installation requirements. Unit should only be
powered by a power source that is Listed (NEC) Class 2 or a
ListedITEPower Supply marked/ratedasLPSorLimited Power
Source.
