Connecting the panel reader to a power source
The panel reader can be powered by a 12 V battery, using the battery leads supplied. The panel reader operates well from a
12 V automotive battery, however a marine battery is less prone to permanent damage if the battery is not charged at least
every few days. Connect the red clip to the positive terminal (+) on the battery and the black clip to the negative
terminal (-).
Alternatively, the panel reader may be powered by mains power using the mains power adaptor supplied.
Notes:
-
The panel reader does not have an on/off switch. It switches on automatically when a power source is applied. The
Power LED (red) illuminates to show that the panel reader is on.
-
If the Power LED (red) is flashing, this indicates that the battery voltage is too low.
