WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the unit to rain or
moisture. This installation should be made by qualified service personnel and should conform to
all local codes and in accordance with the National Electrical Code.

Installation Instructions:

1. Set the input voltage selector switch located on the left side of the Vertiline unit (facing front panel) for

115VAC or 230VAC operation (Fig. 1c, pg. 4).

2

. Attach mounting brackets to Vertiline unit for rack or wall mount installation (Figs. 4-5, pg. 7). Affix rubber pads to

V

ertiline for shelf installation (Fig. 6, pg. 7).

3.

Secure the unit in a rack, mount unit to a wall or place unit on a shelf as desired (unit should be spaced at least
3” from any video monitors). When installing the unit in a rack allow for one half of a U spacing above the unit
for ventilation.

4. Plug the grounded AC line cord (included) into the IEC 320 connector of the Vertiline unit (Fig. 1g, pg. 4).

Insert the plug end of the line cord into a g

5. Set illuminated master power disconnect circuit breaker to the (ON) position (Fig. 3, pg. 6).

6. Select 24VAC or 28VAC pow

(Fig. 1b, pg. 4).

7.

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

8. Set illuminated master power disconnect circuit breaker to the (OFF) position (Fig. 3, pg. 6).

rounded AC receptacle.

9. Connect the power outputs of terminals marked [1P & 1N] to the power inputs of camera 1 (Fig. 2, pg. 5).

Repeat this step for each additional camera (Outputs 2-24). After wiring is completed insert terminal block into the
corresponding connector and secure by tightening the screws.

10. Upon completion of wiring, set illuminated master power disconnect circuit breaker to the

ON (RESET) position (Fig. 3, pg. 6).

1. The power LEDs (Green) on the faceplate for Outputs 1-24 will illuminate when AC power is present
(Fig. 1a, pg. 4). If any of these LEDs are off, a loss of AC power output may be due to a blown fuse or a tripped
PTC caused b

y a short circuit or overload condition. If all of the LEDs are OFF there may be a complete loss of
supply power to the Vertiline unit or the illuminated master power disconnect circuit breaker is in the OFF position
or the main fuse 1-12 or 13-24 is blown (Fig. 1d, pg. 4).*

To restore the power output for Vertiline24 or Vertiline246:

1- Switch corresponding output voltage switch to the OFF position (Fig. 1b, pg. 4).
2-

Eliminate the trouble condition.
3- Replace the corresponding automotive blade fuse.*
4- Switch output voltage switch to the 24VAC or 28VAC position as desired (Fig. 1b, pg. 4).

To restore the power output for Vertiline24D or Vertiline246D:

1- Switch corresponding output voltage switch to the OFF position (Fig. 1b, pg. 4).
2-

Eliminate the trouble condition.
3- Allow 1 minute for PTC to cool off.
4- Switch output voltage switch to the 24VAC or 28VAC position as desired (Fig. 1b, pg. 4).

*Note: Replace fuses with same type and rating:

Output fuses are rated @ 3 amp for all models.
