Wiring methods should be in accordance with the National Electrical Code/NFPA 70/NFPA 72/ANSI, and with all
local codes and authorities having jurisdiction.
1. Remove backplane from the enclosure prior to mounting (do not discard hardware).
2. Mark and drill desired inlets on the enclosure to facilitate wiring (Fig. 1, pg. 3).
3. Mount unit in the desired location. For wall mounting refer to Fig. 4, pg. 7.
For pole mounting installation refer to pg. 7 - (Using Optional Altronix Pole Mount Kit PMK1 - not included).
4. Install backplane inside the enclosure with hardware.
5. Set power switch, if applicable, to the OFF position (Fig. 2c, pg. 4).
Ground
6. Connect AC power (115VAC or 230 VAC) as follows: Green branch wire connects to earth (safety)
ground lug . (Fig. 2-3, pgs. 4-5).
Wire gauge range of connectors is 14 AWG to 11 AWG (1.6mm to 2.5mm diameter).
7. Select the desired DC output voltage by setting SW1 to the appropriate position for models WayPoint3,
WayPoint5, WayPoint7, and WayPoint7V (Reference Chart above) (Fig. 2a, pg. 4).
WayPoint1012V provides 12VDC only.
8. Set power switch to the ON position (Fig. 2b, pg. 4).
9. Measure output voltage at the terminals marked [– DC +] before connecting devices
(Fig. 2b, pg. 4, Fig. 3a, pg. 5). This helps avoiding potential damage.
Note: Power supplies mounted in weatherproof enclosures should be derated by approximately 50%
due to the harsh environmental conditions.
10. Set power switch to the OFF position (Fig. 2b, pg. 4).
