Installing Your Switch
Connecting to a +24 VDC Power Source
Note: Below the DC power entry block is an additional chassis ground point for attaching a
DC power chassis ground if required by local electrical codes. The ground point should be
connected with an M4 screw and a terminal lug as specified by local electrical codes.
WARNING: Although the system provides four inputs pins to connect a DC power source, use
the top two pins only. Pins 3 and 4 are not connected or recommended.
WARNING: Before wiring the DC plug or connecting power to the switch, ensure that power to
the feed lines is turned off at the supply circuit breaker or disconnected from the power bus.

To connect the switch to a +24 VDC power source:
Step 1 Before a +24 VDC power supply module can be used, you must connect an
external DC power source to the DC power connection on the right side of the
front panel.
Step 2 To provide adequate circuit protection between the DC power source and the
switch, all intermediate wiring and circuitry should be rated to carry a load at
least two times the maximum rating for this switch (see
