Page 32: D1000C Power Cable
2007 D1000C Power Cable If the power harness between the circuit breaker and the D1000C Modem Unit is less than 10’, there is no need to connect two PWR wires and two GND wires to the D-Sub connector (the diagram below shows the case scenario for a long wiring scheme – above 10’). The D1000C should work without problems if the installer chooses to only connect GND to pin 1 and PWR to pin 2.
