Power Connector Wiring and Grounding

WARNING: Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious injury.

The two power cord wires must be kept separate while the power supply is plugged
in. Disconnect the power before wiring.

NOTES:

Your transmitter and receiver pair may have shipped with a blue captive screw
connector. This blue connector can be plugged into either a blue or an orange
power receptacle. The blue connector does not have the extended tail or the
included tie-wrap.

Do not tin the power supply leads before installing in the direct insertion connector.
Tinned wires are not as secure in the connectors and could be pulled out of the
connector.

ATTENTION: Potential damage to property.

This product is intended to be supplied by a Listed Power Unit marked “Class 2”
or “LPS”, rated 12 VDC, maximum 1.0 A. Always use a power supply supplied
or specified by Extron. Use of an unauthorized power supply voids all regulatory
compliance certification and may cause damage to the supply and the end
product.

Unless otherwise stated, the AC/DC adapters are not suitable for use in air
handling spaces or in wall cavities. The power supply is to be located within the
same vicinity as the Extron AV processing equipment in an ordinary location,
Pollution Degree 2, secured to the equipment rack within the dedicated closet,
podium, or desk.

The installation must always be in accordance with the applicable provisions of
National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, article 75, and the Canadian Electrical
Code part 1, section 16. The power supply shall not be permanently fixed to
building structure or similar structure.

Use the supplied tie wrap to strap the power cord to the extended tail of the connector.
As an alternative, an Extron PS 124 Universal 12 VDC Power Supply can power multiple
MTPs or other Extron 12 VDC devices using only one AC power connector.
