Power and Signal Wiring
IMPORTANT:
For all signal wiring, including ethernet cables, it is recommended to connect cables of less than 30m
length to avoid surge current spikes that may damage the equipment.
5.1
Electrical Connection and Cabling
The on-board wire terminals are located in the back cover of the terminal and are accessible after
removing the front cover:
For convenient access, the terminals for IN1, IN2, OUTPUTS and POWER are removable. Also, the
terminals for TAMPER, RS485, RS232, WIEGAND, and RELAY are removable as one connected piece.
To insert cables into wire terminals please strip cable insulation off for ~5mm.
To remove cables a standard screwdriver size 1.5mm is required. Please insert the tip into the
corresponding squared hole of the wire terminal before removing the cable, to unlock the latch.
NOTE:
Removing cables with force from the wire terminal may damage the wire terminal or the board.
Unlock the latches before removing, otherwise wires can no longer be fixed, and board needs to be
replaced.
This is not covered by TBS standard warranty!
IMPORTANT:
Ensure to close the fixation screws fully and turn back half a turn. Only then the device front is pulled
back to the backbox, ensuring the connector board contacts are in proper position. Otherwise, there
could be side effects like network not working.
Do not power the device before all cable connections are properly made and the front is fully closed.
Otherwise, there is risk of damaging the device.
To relieve any installed cables from undesired stress on the wire terminals, a strain relieve mechanism
on the metal brackets holding the wire terminal board is provided.
All installed cables should be fixed to the metal framing by fastening all cables with a zip tie (or similar
cable bundling solution) and an M3 screw to the metal framing.
