1.
With the power supply off or unplugged, connect it to the controller.
The SNAP-LCSX controller requires a power supply capable of delivering at least 500mA at 5V ±5 percent.
The controller does not have a power switch; to turn it off, switch off the power supply.
CAUTION: Reversing wire polarity may cause damage to your controller. This damage is not covered by Opto 22’s
warranty. If in doubt about which wire is which on your power supply, check with a meter.
a.
With the power supply off or unplugged, connect the +5V lead from the power supply (normally
red) to the +5V terminal on the face of the SNAP-LCSX.
b.
Connect the COM wire from the power supply (normally black) to the COM terminal on the face of
the SNAP-LCSX.
