Power Requirements
The standard iSTAR eX uses the UL Recognized ESD Power Supply, Model SPS-6.5 with
Battery charger.
To ensure adequate power, calculate the total power requirements of iSTAR eX and its related
hardware, as follows.
Add the total current power for components in the system (modules, relays, optional
modules, readers, and wire resistance).
Use the information in Table 1-3 through Table 1-5 to compute the current draw of
components attached to iSTAR eX.
The standard iSTAR eX must be connected to a 15A circuit breaker protected branch circuit.
Cabling must be UL Listed. See the section "Connecting AC Power to UL Recognized ESD
Power Supply" on
page
