•The i-Vu® XT Router is powered by a Class 2 power source. Take appropriate isolation measures when
mounting it in a control panel where non-Class 2 circuits are present.
• Carrier controllers can share a power supply as long as you:
• Maintain the same polarity.
• Use the power supply only for Carrier controllers.
Do not apply line voltage (mains voltage) to the router's ports and terminals.
1 Make sure the i-Vu® XT Router’s power switch is in the

2 Remove power from the power supply.
3 Pull the red screw terminal connector from the router's power terminals labeled
4 Connect the power supply's wires to the red screw terminal connector.
5 Connect an 18 AWG or larger wire from the power supply's negative (-) terminal to earth ground. This wire
must not exceed 12 in. (30.5 cm).
6 Apply power to the power supply.
7 Measure the voltage at the red screw terminal connector to verify that the voltage is within the operating
range of 20 to 30 Vac or 23.4 to 30 Vdc.
8 Insert the red screw terminal connector into the router's power terminals.
9 To verify the polarity of the wiring, measure the voltage from the negative terminal of the red screw terminal
connector to a nearby ground. The reading should be 0V.

Autogenerating is set up through the controller setup pages (page 25).
•The rotary switch settings determine the router number in the i-Vu interface.
The switches below are set to 125.
Do not leave the rotary switches set at 0 (the factory default). The i-Vu® XT Router cannot be
discovered if the rotary switches are left at 0.
You must define the i-Vu® XT Router's IP addressing (IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway) in the
controller setup pages so that the router can communicate with the i-Vu Pro Server on the IP network.
Use one of the IP addressing schemes described below with the associated instructions that follow.

Carefully plan your addressing scheme to avoid duplicating addresses. If third-party devices are integrated
into the system, make sure your addresses do not conflict with their addresses.
