Power Source Switch 

The VTS Transmitter pcb has a Power Source Switch which should always be in the 

“Operational Position” for the transmitter to function

 normally

.  The “Nonoperational 

Position” is provided so the transmitter can be programmed or configured when there is no 

24v power source available. This is a convenient feature for configuring the BACnet 
parameters or 

the transmitter’s analog output 

prior to having the 24V power source wired. 

 

   

    

 

 

Operational Position 

Nonoperational Position 

24V power is provided to the transmitter 
through the 24V connector. This is the 
normal position for the Power Source 
Switch.  

5Vdc power is provided to the 
transmitter through the computer 
connected to the USB Configuration Port.  
This is a temporary position only.   

 
  

Note:

 

The Power Source Switch must be returned to the Operational Position after 

completing the configuration otherwise the transmitter will not function. 

6.4.2

 

For connecting to the VTS through the Monitor (sold separately); remove the rubber 
dust plug protecting the 

Monitor’s U

SB port and insert the USB cable into the USB C 

connector located on the Monitor.  Be sure to reinstall the rubber dust plug on the 
Monitor when finished. 

 

 

 

1.

 

The Power Source Switch on the transmitter must be in the Operational Position 
when the Monitor is connected.  The Nonoperational Position shall not be used 
when the Monitor is connected to the VTS. 

2.

 

Verify the transmitter is powered prior to connecting the computer to the Monitor 
USB port.
