GENESIS Control Board (w/terminal blocks)
RSP-320-27 Power Supply w/(2) mounting screws & (2) Mounting brackets
6'
RED
& BLACK wire (power from the power supply to the board-replaces YELLOW wires)
6' BLACK & WHITE AC Power wires 14 gauge (power from AC box to power supply if needed)
6'
GREEN
ground wire
DC Troubleshooting light w/4' of 24 gauge 2-conductor
10Amp Glass fuse (Replaces the AC 3Amp in the face of the Battery Tray)
Miscellaneous wire connectors and cable ties
1. Turn off all power (AC at Outlet Box & DC Toggle switch under Control Box). For extra precaution, turn off
the main dedicated breaker feeding the operator outlet box.
2.
CAUTION:
Additional accessories may have been installed and powered off the AC transfomer by a 3
