POWERING THE IE-GIGA-MINIMC
IE-Giga-MiniMc supports two powering options. You can use one of the following
options, or both for redundancy:
• A country-specific AC power adapter (included)
• The 4-terminal DC power block
AC Power Operation
Only connect an IMC Networks’ power adapter to the adapter jack. Using a non-
IMC Networks power adapter in this jack will void the warranty.
DC Terminal Block Wiring Instructions
You can also power the IE-Giga-MiniMc with the DC terminal block. From a power
source, connect to any one positive and any one negative terminal on IE-Giga-
MiniMc.
NOTE
When using stranded wire, the leads must be tinned, and equivalent to a 16 AWG
solid conductor. The IE-Giga-MiniMc is protected against mis-wiring; if mis-wired
the IE-Giga-MiniMc will not function. The IE-Giga-MiniMc body is internally
connected to the negative DC power terminals.

Cascading Power
When installing multiple IE-Giga-MiniMc units on a DIN rail, you
can use one DC input source and then cascade from one
DC block to the next, until reaching the maximum
electrical current available.
