FContact closure input and tally output ports — (Optional) To enable control via
contact closure, wire a push-button contact closure device to a C(contact) pin of one of
the contact/tally connectors and to a G(ground) pin. To identify the currently selected
input when the front panel buttons are not visible (if desired), connect an indicator
device, such as an LED, to tally output pin Tnext to the connected Contact pin.
NOTES:
• Contact closure control overrides front panel input selections.
• For contact closure control, auto-switch mode must be off (see Selecting an
Input on page19).
The contact/tally panel (labeled CONT) contains
two rows of contact and tally connectors (see the
image at right):
• Bottom row — Contains:
1 Contact inputs 1 and 2 — One 5-pole
captive screw connector containing two
pairs of pins labeled C(contact) and T
(tally).
The 5-pole connector also contains a +V
pin, which supplies power to optional tally
indicator devices such as LEDs that are
connected to contact inputs.
3 Contact inputs 3 and 4 — One 4-pole captive screw connector with two
more C-Tpin pairs.
4 G pin — A ground pin, located on the 3-pole Remote RS-232 connector.
You can connect a contact closure device to this pin and to a Cpin of any
contact/tally input.
• Top row — Contains two 4-pole captive screw connectors, each containing a
contact pin, a ground pin, a tally pin, and a +V pin that can be used to power
connected tally indicator devices.
5 Contact input 5
6 Contact input 6
See Wiring the Contact/Tally Connectors on page13 for information on
connecting contact closure and tally indicator devices to the contact/tally ports.
GRemote RS-232 connector — Use this 3-pole, 3.5 mm captive screw connector for
RS-232 communication with the switcher (including firmware updates).
To enable RS-232 control, connect the Tx (transmit), Rx (receive) and G(ground) pins
to the serial port of your computer or control system (see Wiring for RS-232 Control
on page12).

DTP2 T 204 Switcher • Installation 11
Wiring the Power Connector
A 12 VDC, 3 A, pre-wired power supply is provided with the DTP2 T 204. If, instead, you
intend to use a different power supply, follow the instructions on page12 to wire the
provided 2-pole captive screw connector to your power supply.
ATTENTION:
• The wires must be kept separate while the power supply is plugged in. Remove
power before wiring.
• Les deux cordons d’alimentation doivent être tenus à l’écart l’un de l’autre quand
l’alimentation est branchée. Couper l’alimentation avant de faire l’installation
électrique.
• Always use a power supply supplied and or specified by Extron. Use of an
unauthorized power supply voids all regulatory compliance certification and may
cause damage to the supply and the end product.
• Utilisez toujours une source d’alimentation fournie ou recommandée par Extron.
L’utilisation d’une source d’alimentation non autorisée annule toute conformité
réglementaire et peut endommager la source d’alimentation ainsi que le produit
final.
• If not provided with a power supply, this product is intended to be supplied by a
power source marked “Class 2” or “LPS” and rated at 12 VDC and a minimum of
1.5 A.
• Si ce produit ne dispose pas de sa propre source d’alimentation électrique, il doit
être alimenté par une source d’alimentation de classe 2 ou LPS et paramétré à
12 V et 1.5 A minimum.
• The installation must always be in accordance with the applicable provisions of
National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, article 725 and the Canadian Electrical
Code part 1, section 16. The power supply shall not be permanently fixed to
building structure or similar structure.
• Cette installation doit toujours être en accord avec les mesures qui s’applique
au National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA70, article725, et au Canadian Electrical
Code, partie1, section16. La source d’alimentation ne devra pas être fixée de
façon permanente à une structure de bâtiment ou à une structure similaire.
• Power supply voltage polarity is critical. Incorrect voltage polarity can damage the
power supply and the unit. The ridges on the side of the cord identify the power
cord negative lead (see figure6 on page 12).
• La polarité de la source d’alimentation est primordiale. Une polarité incorrecte
pourrait endommager la source d’alimentation et l’unité. Les stries sur le côté
du cordon permettent de repérer le pôle négatif du cordon d’alimentation (voir
figure6 à la page 12).
• To verify the polarity before connection, plug in the power supply with no load and
check the output with a voltmeter.
• Pour vérifier la polarité avant la connexion, brancher l’alimentation hors charge et
mesurer sa sortie avec un voltmètre.

DTP2 T 204 Switcher • Installation 12
ATTENTION:
• The wires must be kept separate while the power supply is plugged in. Remove
power before wiring.
• Les deux cordons d’alimentation doivent être tenus à l’écart l’un de l’autre quand
l’alimentation est branchée. Couper l’alimentation avant de faire l’installation
électrique.
• The length of the exposed (stripped) copper wires is important.
The ideal length is 3/16 inch (5 mm). Longer bare wires can short together.
Shorter wires are not as secure in the connectors and could be pulled out.
• La longueur des câbles exposés est primordiale lorsque l’on entreprend de les
dénuder. La longueur idéale est de 5mm (3/16inches). S’ils sont un peu plus
longs, les câbles exposés pourraient se toucher et provoquer un court circuit. S’ils
sont un peu plus courts, ils pourraient sortir, même s’ils sont attachés par les vis
captives.
• Unless otherwise stated, the AC/DC adapters are not suitable for use in air
handling spaces or in wall cavities.
• Sauf mention contraire, les adaptateurs AC/DC ne sont pas appropriés pour une
utilisation dans les espaces d’aération ou dans les cavités murales.
1. Cut the DC output cord to the length needed.
2. Strip the jacket to expose 3/16 inches (5 mm) of the conductors.
3. Slide the leads into the supplied 2-pole captive screw plug, and use a small screwdriver
to secure them.
4. To verify the power cord polarity before connecting the plug, connect the power supply
with no load and check the output with a voltmeter.
5. Use the supplied tie wrap to strap the power cord to the extended tail of the connector.
