2.0 Installation
Review this section and the important safety information on page ii before proceeding with the
installation of your router.
WARNING:
Installations should be performed by quali
fi
ed personnel, such as a licensed
or certi
fi
ed electrician. The installer determines which safety codes apply and ensures
all applicable installation requirements are followed. Applicable installation codes vary
depending on the speci
fi
c location and application.
CAUTION:
When connecting battery power to the inverter, all battery negative
connections must be connected prior to the battery positive connections. When removing
battery power from the inverter, the battery positive should be removed before any
battery negative connections are disconnected. This prevents any communication chips/
lines from becoming the DC return path to the battery—causing permanent damage to
all connected accessories.
Summation:
Ensure all battery negative circuits are always connected before connecting
or disconnecting battery positive.
2.1 Pre-Installation
Before proceeding, read the entire Installation section to determine how you are going to install
your ME-ARTR router. Save time and avoid common, costly mistakes by thoroughly planning the
installation before you start.
2.1.1 Inverter
Requirements
The router is used to control multiple Magnum inverters that are normally connected in parallel.
Each connected inverter must: be the same model (i.e., two MS4024PAEs), use the same settings,
and be connected to the same battery bank. If the inverters are not stacked, see Appendix C.
2.1.2 Installation
Guidelines
• Before connecting any wires, determine the router’s cable route throughout the home or
vehicle/boat—both to and from the inverter.
• Always check for existing electrical, plumbing, or other areas of potential damage BEFORE
drilling or cutting into walls to mount the router.
• Make sure all wires have a smooth bend radius and do not become kinked.
• If installing this router in a boat, RV or truck, ensure the conductors passing through walls,
bulkheads, or other structural members are protected. This minimizes insulation damage
(such as cha
fi
ng) which can be caused by vibration or constant rubbing.
2.1.3
Unpacking and Inspection
Carefully remove the ME-ARTR router from its shipping container and inspect all contents. Verify
the following items are included:
• ME-ARTR router (with removable front cover)
• Two 6’ RJ14 remote cables (see Figure 2-4)
• Two 6’ RJ45 stack cables (see Figure 2-5)
• Four #8 x 3/4 Phillips screws (for wall mounting)
• ME-ARTR Owner’s Manual
If items appear to be missing or damaged, contact an authorized Magnum Energy dealer or
Sensata Technologies.
IMPORTANT:
Save your proof-of-purchase as a record of your ownership; it is needed if the unit
should require in-warranty service.
2.1.4 Tools
Required
Installing the router is simple and requires the following tools:
• Phillips screwdriver
• Level
• Drill
• Cut-out tool (knife/saw)
• Pencil
• Drill bit (7/64”)
