CAUTION: Before plugging in your remote monitor, verify that the AC line is
properly wired and that a protective ground (green) wire is established
with NO potential difference between both the sender and receiver
locations (the UTP splitter [AC154A-2 or AC154A-8] can tolerate
up to 5 v peak-to- peak ground noise between the two locations).
Failure to ensure good grounding can result in erratic operation and
possible shock hazards with severe damage to your equipment.
