Connecting the power port to the LPR Processing Unit
To power the SharpX cameras, you must connect the power port to the LPR Processing Unit.
What you should know
As a best practice, use a red wire for power (+) and a black wire for ground (GND) to be consistent
with similar Genetec installations.
To connect the power port:
1 Plug the 3-pole connector into the power port, and then tighten the securing screws.
2 Strip 10 mm (3/8 in.) of insulation from your stranded copper wires.
BEST PRACTICE:
For a more secure connection, crimp a ferrule to the tip of each stripped wire.
appropriate ferrule for the wire gauge
WARNING
:
Do not lengthen any power or signal wires. If the wire you are installing is too short,
replace with a new longer wire. Splices are a point of possible failure, causing the system to
malfunction.
3 Insert the wires into the connector poles.
