Available Options Power Supply and AC Power Cord The LC1502R requires a 12VDC power input. Many users will have the required 12VDC available in their existing system. Alternatively, a power supply that is appropriately rated for the LC1502R is available from Planar. The supply is available with the AC power cord configured with either a European plug or a US plug.
The total fan kit power consumption is approximately 3.6 watts with fans at max speed. Fan power is derived from the 12V input (4-pin DIN connector.) All cooling kit version monitors are shipped with the cooling kit pre-installed.
