WaveBook/512 and WaveBook/512H

03-06-02

System Setup and Power Options    2-11

System Examples

WaveBook System Drawing 2.9 amps.

Although this system draws current below the 5amp limit of the power connectors [and of the CA-115 Power
Cable], the 2.9 amps does exceed the TR40U 2.2 amp limit.  For this reason the WBK14s are receiving
power from a second TR-40U.

Reference Note:
Although the preceding examples make use of TR-40U power adapters, other power sources can
be used.  These options are discussed in the following section entitled, 

Power Supplies

.

WaveBook/512 with
WBK13 Option Card:
Draws 0.9 amp
