Installation Instructions:

1. Mount unit in the desired rack location (Space unit at least 3” from any video monitors). Do not obstruct side air vents.

2. Set power disconnect circuit breaker to OFF position (Fig. 1c, pg. 3).
3 All units are factory set for 24VAC operation.
For 28VAC operation, adjust unit prior to mounting and applying power as follows:
Change the wire position so that the black wire [28V] is connected to the terminal marked [P] and
the yellow wire [24V] is connected to the terminal marked [S] (Fig. 1, pg. 3).

4. Plug power cord into a grounded 115VAC 50/60 Hz receptacle (Fig. 1b, pg. 3), ground should be connected
as indicated in (Fig. 1d, pg. 3).

5. Set power disconnect circuit breaker to RESET (ON) position (Fig. 1c, pg. 3).

6. Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoiding potential damage.
All terminals with common suffix (P) “1P, 2P...” are the same polarity.

7. Set power disconnect circuit breaker to OFF position (Fig. 1c, pg. 3).

8. Connect devices to the removable terminal blocks marked [1P & 1N through 8P & 8N] (Fig. 1a, pg. 3).
When wiring is completed on terminal blocks, they can be locked down by tightening screw flanges.

9. Upon completion of wiring, set power disconnect circuit breaker to RESET (ON) position (Fig. 1c, pg. 3).

10. Green power LEDs on faceplate will illuminate when power is present. When an output is in a trouble condition

- 2 - R248 series

(blown fuse or tripped PTC), the corresponding LED will not be illuminated (Fig. 1, pg. 3).

a. Blown fuse - Set power disconnect circuit breaker on the back of the unit to the OFF position (Fig. 1c, pg. 3).
Remove front faceplate to access fuses. Replace with fuses rated @ 3.5A/250VA (Altronix model # Fuse1).
b. Tripped PTC - To reset PTC, set power disconnect circuit breaker on back of unit to the OFF position.
After approximately 30 secs. set power disconnect circuit breaker to the ON (RESET) position (Fig. 1c, pg. 3).

11. Illuminated power disconnect circuit breaker with manual reset:
OFF position - Switch not illuminated. Outputs not powered.
RESET (ON) position - Circuit breaker illuminated. Outputs powered.
Circuit breaker tripped - Circuit breaker is not illuminated. Power LEDs on faceplate are not illuminated.
Outputs not powered.
To reset circuit breaker set power disconnect circuit breaker to RESET (ON) position (Fig. 1c, pg. 3).

CAUTION: Equipment must be installed/serviced by authorized personnel only.
Shut brunch circuit power before servicing/installing equipment.
