Power Controller Guide
Introduction
This power controller box provides power for the Plustek NVR (Network Video
Recorder), DC12V surveillance cameras, and DC12V Video Server on the motor
vehicles. In normal operational conditions, this device receives battery DC power and
transforms to stable DC power for the NVR and related electronics equipments. This
intelligent power module contains self-protection function to effectively protect your
vehicle power. When the car battery voltage reaches the cut off limit, this device will
stop providing power for the NVR and related equipments in order to protect the car
battery. Hence, the battery voltage is avoided to be too low to start the engine for
insuring normal operation.
Safety Precautions
1. Please be well aware of the hazards during the installation. The power controller
box contains hazardous voltages. It should be tested and installed by qualified
technicians who are trained in the use of power systems.
2. Do not touch the input and output terminals when power is applied. These areas
are at hazardous voltage potentials.
3. The power controller cover should not be removed because the internal voltages
are at hazardous potentials. Removing the box cover will void the warranty.
