Universal Beltpack
Local Power
The
Local Power
setting is used to isolate the DC power (voltage) so line noise is reduced without losing
signal voltage. Use the local power setting when you have two power supplies feeding a system of
beltpacks over a long distance (up to 1000 feet supported). For information on how to set local power, see
“Set Local Power” on page 31.
IMPORTANT:
When using the local power setting only one beltpack in the line should be set to LP
(Local Power). Commonly, the first beltpack after a long cable run is set to LP, as
shown in Figure 3. In a two power supply system, if two beltpacks are set to local
power, then any beltpacks in between those two devices do not receive power (see
Figure 4).
