Powering Up the System
6.10 Powering Up the System
The X1 Outdoor Router can only be powered directly from the Power Module’s DC power
output connector. iDirect recommends that the chassis of the Power Module be powered from
a low noise, low transient power source.
The power cord is specific to the needs of the installation site. Only the mating connector is
supplied by iDirect and is referred to, in this manual, as the “power gland”.
6.10.1 Checking Conditions before Powering Up the System
Verify that an Ethernet cable connects the LAN port of the PC/laptop to the LAN port of the
X1 Outdoor Router.
4.
1. Connect the power cable into power
source. Use a voltmeter to confirm
correct AC or DC voltage. Remove plug to
de-energize the circuit.
2. Connect the DC power cable into to the
Power Module. The connector is keyed
and can only be inserted one way. Hand-
tighten the screw nut. Weather-tape the
assembly as needed following the
manufacturer's instructions.
3. Tighten and inspect the cable for final
assembly.

CAUTION:
Install power on a GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter) protected circuit.
CAUTION:
Improper power source rating, excessive noise or transients, or
undersized circuit breaker will result in service interruption.
CAUTION:
If power must be removed from the chassis, the power cord must be
disconnected, first.
CAUTION:
Direct connections to the prime power source should only be made by a
properly licensed electrician. Installation must meet applicable electrical codes.
CAUTION:
Do not connect or disconnect the Tx or Rx cable while the X1 Outdoor
Router is powered; this action may result in damage to the BUC, LNB, and/or
satellite router.
