3. Setup
AC Power
The LΩGIC Drive 2X has an auto-ranging power supply and it can work with an input voltage range of 100
to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz.
To determine the product’s power requirements (circuit breaker, power outlet, and wiring), use the current
value listed on the label affixed to the product’s back panel, or refer to the Technical Specifications. The
listed current rating indicates the product’s average current draw under normal conditions.
Emergency Backup Power
To keep the LΩGIC system powered on and maintain the lighting in the case of an emergency, it is
recommended to use a battery backup UPS (Uninterruptable Power Supply) between the LΩGIC Drive 2X
and the mains power, as well as between each POE injector and the mains power.
This UPS can be one which is hardwired directly to the power cord included with the LΩGIC Drive 2X, or
one with 120V Edison ports. See AC Plug for wiring information.
AC Plug
The LΩGIC Drive 2X comes with a power input cord terminated with a Seetronic Powerkon IP65 connector
on one end and an Edison plug on the other end (U.S. market). If the power input cord that came with the
product has no plug, if the plug must be changed, or if the cable needs to be hardwired to a UPS, use the
table below ensure correct wiring.
Fuse Replacement
1. Disconnect this product from the power outlet.
2. Using a flat-head screwdriver, unscrew the fuse holder cap from the housing.
3. Remove the blown fuse and replace with another fuse of the same type and rating (F 20 A, 250 V).
4. Screw the fuse holder cap back in place and reconnect power.
Always connect the product to a protected circuit (a circuit breaker or fuse). Make sure the
product has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.
Never connect the product to a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the
rheostat or dimmer channel serves only as a 0 to 100% switch.
