Control Line Option
If this option is installed, your RT-12i will have a connector which can interrupt a control line when the
computer is shut off. This is useful if you would like to trigger a power up/down of other devices with a control
line at the same time as the computer. Units with this option installed will come with a control line cable as
shown below:
The
black
wire will connect to the control line voltage source (usually a +12V DC un-switched line), and the
red
wire will connect to the control line of the device you wish to control. When the computer is shut down,
the control line is interrupted and the voltage does not continue to the red wire. When the computer is running,
the red wire will be carrying the control line voltage.
Power Specifications:
The control line voltage must be within 8-28 Volts DC. The maximum current is 1.8 Amps.
