terminal block style connector at
Main
.
Power Supply Connection
The CFSound-IV requires a regulated or unregulated voltage of 10V to 18V DC.
Voltages above 18VDC will damage the unit.
The unit has resettable fusing internally to protect the Power input. Should the fuse trip, remove power,
correct the fault, wait a minute for the thermal fuse to cool and reset, then, re-apply power. The non-OEM
version of the CFSound-IV is supplied with a 120-240VAC 50/60Hz wall mounted transformer rated at
15VDC @ 1.6A.
ACS supplies different versions of the wall-mounted transformer power supply for the CFSound-IV. The

. The Common and Normally Open relay contacts are available on the
Main
connector.
The contact inputs on the
Main
connector appear logically to the CFSound-IV as Contact #25 & #26,
and may be activated by momentarily applying ground to the Input Contact #xx pin on the
Main
connector.
The contact inputs are implemented with an optocoupler. The Cathodes of the LEDs in the optocoupler are
connected to the Contact #25 and #26 Input pins. The Anodes of the LEDs in the optocoupler are connected
