Terminal block power option
If the terminal block power option is selected, mainboard power is applied to the Helix platform
through a 4-pin terminal block connector (Mating part: Dinkle #2ESDAM-04P or equivalent).
The system is operational from 8V~24V (HX 500) and 19V~24V (HX600 with GPU option). The
maximum rated current of the connector is 15A per pin. Use a wire gauge that is rated for the
operational current. Cables should be properly terminated with wire ferrules. Do not use the terminal
block with tinned wire ends or solid core wire. See below for connector pinout.
When using the remote switch connections with the terminal block option, mating power switch
cables should be a twisted-pair wire with floating shield to assure proper immunity to EMI/RFI. It is
recommended to keep wires at less than 3 meters in length. Switches should be momentary contact
type only.
