3.1 Connecting Power
Although the power supply and battery are low
voltage, they do have the ability to supply a high
current and could potentially heat up a metal ring,
watch band, or bracelet enough to burn skin or melt
metal when shorted. Remove rings, watches, or
bracelets before hooking up power and connecting a
battery. WARNING
Unlike earlier Campbell Scientific power supplies, the CH/PS200 can have
both solar and AC power hooked up simultaneously.
Flip the power supply switch to “Off” before hooking up power to the power
supply.
The switch on the CH/PS200 only controls power going to the
“12V” and “G” terminal blocks. The battery is continuously
charged regardless of the switch setting as long as a charging
voltage is present. NOTE
