Fused Method for Providing Battery Power
For installations requiring more power than the panel
aux power can provide (such as when using 8- or 16-
ohm speakers) you may need to obtain additional power.
You may obtain power from an external power supply, or
through a fused connection directly to the control panel
backup battery, as shown:
