Powering SmartFeed On and Off
SmartFeed only requires a 12 volt DC power source to operate. This low voltage is
relatively harmless. However, if an external AC to DC power converter is used to power
the SmartFeed, the AC power going into the converter can be hazardous. Please protect
the AC power cord and exercise caution when using AC power.
Before you power on SmartFeed:
1. Connect the provided power cable to the SmartFeed power plug. The plug is
located directly below the gate latch mechanism. See Figure 4 for reference.
Figure 4) SmartFeed Power Receptacle
2. Ensure all power cables are protected from animals and other possible sources of
damage, such as vehicle or foot traffic.
3. Ensure the power cord is not a tripping hazard.
4. Contact C-Lock if the power cord is worn or wires are exposed.
