IP65 connectors
The VC-Feeder uses custom IP65-rated connectors. To ensure that they
are correctly sealed and avoid damage, connect them as follows:
1. Line up the raised key and corresponding groove on the connectors.
The connector pins and holes should now also be lined up.
2. Push the connectors together firmly but without excessive force. If
force seems necessary, separate the connectors and check that they
are correctly lined up, then try again.
3. When the connectors are fully engaged, screw the locking ring on the
male connector onto the thread on the female connector until tight.
Input
The VC-Feeder input is a 180 mm (7 in.) cable tail with a 6-pin male IP65
IN connector that accepts 48 VDC power and data.
Extension cables
If the VC-Feeder is not close to the power and data source, you will need
to extend the input cable. To do this, insert a Martin™ hybrid extension
cable with custom 6-pin IP65 connectors between the input adapter cable
shown in Figure 4 and the VC-Feeder. Suitable cables from Martin™ are
listed under ”Hybrid extension cables” on page 27.
The maximum permitted total length of the cable run that carries DC
power to a chain of VC-Feeders is 50 m (164 ft.) from the DC power
supply device (P3 PowerPort 1500 or Tripix Power IP66, for example) to
the last VC-Feeder on the chain.
Do not exceed the maximum lengths for cable runs specified in display
device user manuals.
P3 and DMX system connections
The VC-Feeder connections depend on whether you are installing a P3™
video display system or a DMX/RDM-controlled display system. See the
following sections.
