Connecting the power cable
The MDS-2 and MDS-3 units are designed for 12/24/32-volt installations. The MDS-4 operates
on 24 or 32 VDC only.
Power should be fed through a switch and protective fuses (or circuit breakers).
To connect the power cable:
1. Plug the power cable into the receptacle labeled "POWER" on the rear panel of the control
box, and connect to power supply as shown below.
2. Place the fuse and connector part in a dry area with no water splash.
Figure 14 shows the power connector wiring, to be used if the installer chooses to remove and
reinstall the connector to run the cable through small openings.
