2.3.1. Power supply requirements
The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
A single external power supply with 5 pin ODU connector or SAE connector is necessary to
operate the ALPHA receiver. If external power supply has only SAE connector, Receiver-to-SAE
power cable shall be used. The external power supply needs to be Listed for US and Certified for
EU countries, it needs also to be a Limited Power Source and rated for Outdoor Use and have an
output rated for +7...40 V DC, 3A. This may not be the same range as other JAVAD GNSS
products with which you are familiar.

AUTION
:
To avoid the introduction of hazards when operating and installing, before connecting of the
equipment to the supply, make sure that the supply meets local and national safety ordi-
nances and matches the equipment’s voltage and current requirements.
C
AUTION
:
Never attempt any maintenance or cleaning of the supply while plugged in. Always remove
supply from AC power before attempting service or cleaning.
Warning:
If the voltage supplied is below the minimum specification, the receiver will suspend operation. If the
voltage supplied is above the maximum specification, the receiver may be permanently damaged,
voiding your warranty.
Make sure cords are located so that will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise sub-
jected to damage or stress. Do not operate equipment with a damaged cord or plug –
replace immediately. To reduce the risk of damage to the equipment, pull by the plug body
rather than the output cord when disconnecting the equipment.
Do not operate the supply if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise dam-
aged. Do not disassemble the supply.
Warning:
Before connecting the external power source and the receiver, make sure that the power source
matches the receiver’s voltage and current requirements.
