Radio Power Requirements (All other radios)
Note: The following instructions do not pertain to the RLX2-IHNF-W radio.
The RLX2-IHx series radios accept voltages between 10 and 24 VDC, with an average
power draw of less than 8 Watts. A detachable power connector comes with the radio,
as shown below. The connector terminals are l (positive DC connection) and -
(DC ground connection).
You can use the AC-to-DC power supply adapter supplied with the optional RLX-IHBTK
Bench Test Kit to convert the input power. The DC power wires must be less than 3
meters in length to meet regulatory requirements.
Warning: When wiring the power connector supplied with the radio, be sure to observe the proper polarity
markings on the power connector. Wiring the connector incorrectly can cause serious damage to the
radio which is not covered under the ProSoft Technology warranty.
The power connector (ProSoft Technology part number 002-0116) is shown on the left in
the photo above. Note the

polarity markings. The wire installation tool (ProSoft
part number 357-0061) shown on the right is helpful for installing wires into the spring-
loaded contacts inside power connector.
