Digital Active Power Sensor (RMA-DAP-SEN)
Install Your Digital Active Power Sensor
Do not use this sensor in hazardous (classified) locations or life safety applications.
Step 1: Connect your Digital Active Power Sensor to Room Alert.
1. Connect the mini-USB jack on the sensor cable to the mini-USB port on the Digital
Active Power Sensor.
2. Run the cable back to your Room Alert. Try to avoid running it
near large electromagnetic devices or fluorescent lights, which
produce EMI that can interfere with the sensor’s readings.
3. Connect the RJ-11 jack on the sensor cable to a digital sensor
port on your Room Alert.
Step 2: Allow the Digital Active Power Sensor to initialize.
After you plug the sensor in to Room Alert, observe
the sensor’s Status LED go from green to red in about
6 seconds. The red LED means the sensor is initialized
and ready.
Step 3: Mount your Digital Active Power Sensor.
1. Once the sensor has initialized, place it on the power cord
you wish to monitor.
Your electrical device should be
powered on so that power is flowing through the
power cord.
2. Rotate the Digital Active Power Sensor back and forth
around the cord until the sensor’s LED glows solid green.
(When in its final position, the LED shouldn’t be flickering
green—it should be lit solid.)
3. Secure the Digital Active Power sensor to your power cord
with the included zip ties, as shown here.
4. You may also secure the sensor cord to your power cord
with the included Velcro tie, as shown here.
