The PowerMaster consists of two major components: The Display and the RF Coupler. The RF Coupler is installed between the output of your
transmitter and your antenna (or antenna tuner input). A six-foot (1.8m) cable is provided for connection between the Display and the Directional
Coupler. You may use a longer cable if you wish (consult the Special Applications section later in this manual).
 The PowerMaster uses a standard 2.1mm coaxial power plug, center pin is + V.
 Make sure your power source can supply at least 500 mA of current. (800 mA min for the original Power Master)
 Please do not use a cheap "wall wart". These devices are usually not regulated and may cause RFI.
