Blue Sky Solar Boost 3024Di - Manual (Page 2)

Network connection and power for the display are provided by the Solar Boost 3024i using the short telephone cable supplied. The
cable should connect between the IPN Display connector on the Solar Boost 3024i main circuit board and the IPN Network connector
on the display circuit board.
¾ Note that standard 4-pin telephone cables swap pin numbers end-to-end. This end-to-end pin swap is
required for the display to operate properly. If cables are custom terminated or cable couplers are used,
be certain the pin swap is maintained as shown below.
