WARNING

Before you connect a voltage source, observe the
following power supply voltage guidelines.
Otherwise, you will void your warranty if the wrong
voltage is applied.

™

Be sure the voltage source is within the permitted

ranges shown above. Otherwise, your modem and
any attached devices may be damaged.

™

Customer-supplied cables must be suitable for the

site environmental conditions.

™

Screw terminals on the power interface accept 24 to

16 AWG. However, surge protection is guaranteed
only if the ground wire is greater than 18 AWG and
if there is a solidly earthed ground connection.

™

Be sure the power source is not controlled by a wall

switch, which can be inadvertently turned off,
shutting off power to the modem.

Connecting an RS-232 Device

The modem back panel provides a female, 25-pin RS-232 connector
that accepts an attached RS-232 device (see Figure 2-1 on page 10).
This connector accepts a standard connection to a DTE (RTU) that
conforms to the pin assignments shown under “RS-232 (DTE)
Interface” on page 38.
