Specifications:
Installation Instructions:
1. Unit is factory set at 12VDC. To adjust the output voltage remove the top cover to access trimpot on the
power supply board (Fig. 1b, pg. 3).
2. Mount unit in the desired rack location (Space unit at least 3” from any video monitors).
3. Set power switch on the back of the unit to the OFF position (Fig. 1e, pg. 3).
4. Plug the power cord into a grounded 115VAC 50/60 Hz receptacle (Fig. 1d, pg. 3).
5. Set power switch to the ON (RESET) position and measure output voltage before connecting devices
(Fig. 1e, pg. 3). This helps avoiding potential damage.
CAUTION: Determine the maximum operating voltage of the equipment being powered before
adjusting the output voltage.
6. Set power switch on the back of the unit to the OFF position (Fig. 1e, pg. 3).
7. Connect devices to the removable terminal blocks marked [1P & 1N] through [8P & 8N] or
[1P & 1N] through [16P & 16N], where applicable (Fig. 1c, pg. 3).
When wiring is completed on the terminal blocks, they can be locked down by tightening screw flanges.
All terminals with common suffix (P) “1P, 2P...” are the same polarity (positive).
All terminals with common suffix (N) “1N, 2N...” are the same polarity (negative).
8. Upon completion of the wiring, set power switch on the back of the unit to the ON (RESET) position
(Fig. 1e, pg. 3).
9. Green power LEDs on faceplate will illuminate when DC output power is present. When an output is in a
trouble condition (blown fuse or tripped PTC), the corresponding LED will not be illuminated (Fig. 1, pg. 3).
a. Blown fuse (R615DC416UL, R615DC616UL, and R615DC8UL) - Set power switch on the back of
unit to the OFF position (Fig. 1e, pg. 3). Remove front faceplate to access fuses.
Replace with fuses rated @ 3.5A/250VA (Altronix model # Fuse1).
b. Tripped PTC (R615DC416ULCB, R615DC616ULCB, and R615DC8ULCB) - To reset PTC, set power
switch on the back of the unit to the OFF position (remove overloaded circuit condition prior to reset).
After approximately 30 secs. set power switch to the ON (RESET) position (Fig. 1e, pg. 3).
