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-PSW52 from sensitive voltage conditions.
The LBC-PSW52 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-PSW52 unless otherwise specified. To provide power to the LBC-
PSW84, simply connect the power cord, already provided with the units, and connect it
to the wall jack. (You will 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 swtichswitch. 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.
Note 1: During installation, the installer may need to connect the power supply output to
an appropriate Listed NEC type cable before it is routed behind a wall. Simply routing
the power 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 Listed ITE Power Supply marked/rated as LPS or Limited Power Source.
Note 2: The installation shall be in accordance with the applicable provisions of the
National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, Article 725 and the Canadian Electrical Code, Part
1, Section 16.
Note 3: The power supply shall not be permanently fixed to the building structure or similar
structures.
Note 4: The power supply shall not be located within environmental air handling spaces or
within the wall cavity.
Note 5: The power supply is to be located within the same vicinity as the A/V processing
equipment in an ordinary location, Pollution Degree 2, secured to the equipment rack
within the dedicated closet, podium or desk
