Connecting The Power Supply - Lionel AMC/ARC Gantry Crane Owner's Manual

Connecting the power supply

Y
our Gantry Crane was designed to operate at 16-18 volts (AC). The power supply terminals
are located along the side of the controller. Refer to Figure 2. Please note that the ends of
the wires must be stripped back 1/8" to 1/4".
Caution!
Only an adult should perform this task. We recommend using a pair of wire
strippers.
1. Attach one wire to the Power/A terminal on the power supply and connect it to the terminal
labeled A on the underside of the controller.
Note! To make the controller connections, loosen the terminal locks using a small
phillips-head screwdriver and insert the bare ends of the wires into the holes in the
housing. Tighten the terminal locks to secure the connection.
2. Attach another wire to the Common/Ground/U terminal on the power supply and connect
it to the terminal labeled U on the underside of the controller.
