2.2.3 CONNECTING THE POWER SUPPLY
The 200ES indicator ships with an AC line cord attached to the indicator. Simply plug the
unit into a standard wall outlet.
The 200SL indicators ship with the rechargeable battery pre-installed. The external power
supply (included) can also be used to power the indicator. The adapter acts as the battery
charger. Because of this, the rechargeable indicator must use a 12 VDC, 800 mA adapter.
1. Simply plug the AC adapter into the indicator’s DC Power Jack first, and then plug into a
standard wall outlet. Make sure that the AC voltage appearing at the wall outlet
matches the input voltage marked on the AC adapter.
