Led Diagnostics; Terminal Identification - Altronix AL600ULX Installation Manual

2. The power supply is pre-wired to the ground (chassis). Connect main incoming ground to the provided green
grounding conductor lead. Connect unswitched AC power (115VAC / 60 Hz to terminals marked [L, G, N]
(Fig. 1, pg. 3). Use 14 AWG or larger for all power connections (Battery, DC output, AC input). Use 22 AWG to
18 AWG for power limited circuits (AC Fail/Low Battery reporting).
Keep power limited wiring separate from non-power limited wiring (115VAC / 60Hz Input, DC Output,
Battery Wires). Minimum .25" spacing must be provided.
3. Set the unit to the desired DC output voltage by setting SW1 (Fig. 1b, pg. 3) to the appropriate position
(Power Supply Voltage Output Selections Chart, pg. 2).
4. Measure output voltage before connecting any devices to ensure proper operation. Improper or high voltage will
damage these devices. When servicing the unit, AC mains should be removed.
5. Connect device(s) to be powered:
a. For AL600ULX(R) Power Supply connect devices to terminals marked [+ DC -] (Fig. 1, pg. 3).
b. For other Power Distribution Models connect devices to be powered to terminal pairs 1 to 4 marked
[1P & 1N thru 4P & 4N] (Fig. 2a & 2b, pg. 5) or 1 to 8 marked [1P & 1N thru 8P & 8N] (Fig. 3a & 3b, pg. 5)
carefully observing correct polarity.
6. For Access Control applications, batteries are optional. When batteries are not used a loss of AC will result in the
loss of output voltage. When the use of stand-by batteries is desired, they must be lead acid or gel type.
7. Connect appropriate signaling notification devices to terminals marked [AC FAIL & BAT FAIL] (Fig. 1, pg. 3)
supervisory relay outputs.
Note: When used in fire alarm, burglar alarm or access control applications, "AC Fail" relay should be used utilized
to visually indicate that AC power is on. To delay report 6 hours cut "AC Delay" jumper (Fig. 1a, pg. 3).
8. Please insure that the cover is secured with the provided Key Lock.

Terminal Legend Function/Description
L, G, N Connect 115VAC 60Hz to these terminals: L to hot, N to neutral, G to ground.
+ DC - - - 12VDC / 24VDC @ 6 amp continuous non power-limited output.
AC Fail Indicates loss of AC power, e.g. connect to audible device or alarm panel. Relay normally ener-
gized when AC power is present. Contact rating 1 amp @ 28VDC. AC or brownout fail is report-
NC, C, NO
ed within 1 minute of event. To delay reporting of up to 6 hrs., cut "AC delay" jumper and reset
power to unit.
Bat Fail Indicates low battery condition, e.g. connect to alarm panel. Relay normally energized when DC
power is present. Contact rating 1 amp @ 28VDC. A removed battery is reported within 5 min-
NC, C, NO
utes. Battery reconnection is reported within 1 minute.
Low battery threshold:
12VDC output threshold set @ approximately 10.5VDC,
24VDC output threshold set @ approximately 21VDC.
+ BAT - - - Stand-by battery connections. Maximum charge current 0.7 amp.
