Reverse-polarity protection
The DC power supply (24V) has a mechanism to protect against reverse polarity. In the
event the 24 V DC lines are reversed (24 V DC nominal (-15% / +20%) and connected to
ground, the device will not sustain any damage. The device will simply fail to turn on. After
the power supply has been connected correctly, the device will again be ready to operate.
