Carefully specify the recording parameters to be sure you capture the desired event within the data window. (See your software manual for additional information.) Please contact DTS for additional information on how this may be useful in your application.
Pin Assignments Suggested Connector Sources for more information. The POWER PRO COM A and COM B connectors provide for remote on/off control of the POWER PRO unit. (See Connector Information for connector pin assignments.) The POWER PRO COM A and COM B ports support the industry-standard Ethernet 10/100BaseT/Tx communication method via an REC cable (P/N 10700-0015x) using either COM port.
POWER PRO User’s Manual August 2022 Connectors – Power Input The POWER PRO should be powered from a high-quality power source with output voltage and current ratings appropriate for the installation.

Suggested Connector Sources DTS uses LEMO and Amphenol connectors. If you need to purchase LEMO connectors, we suggest first going to LEMO directly (http://www.lemo.com). Their web site and worldwide sales team are very helpful. If you cannot obtain a specific part number, they can suggest connector variations or alternates and explain options that may be useful for your application.
