Power supply to RS-485 LAN devices
Devices on the LANs may be supplied from the panel’s or DGP’s + and – LAN
power terminals. Use an external 12 V power supply (such as TS0073 2 A Power
Supply) when:
• the device is more than 100 m (data cable length) from the panel
• electrical isolation is required
• more power is needed than can be provided by the LANs
When powering a LAN device from an external 12 V power supply:
• Connect the external power supply’s ‘+’ terminal to the device’s ‘+’ terminal.
Do not connect the power to the LAN +.
• Connect the external power supply’s ‘-’ terminal to the device ‘-’ terminal.
• Connect the LAN cable black wire ‘-’ to the device ‘-’ terminal.
