Thank you for purchasing NetWave® from ComNet. This manual
will cover how to install hardware on your enclosure, configure
batteries, cabling, and mounting of the enclosure.
The NetWave® NWKBB100 DC-Battery Power Solution provides
consistent power for your devices in locations where power
is on a timer or they have frequent blackouts or brownouts.
The NWKBB100 supports AC input ranging from 110 to 277
VAC, and can also support higher voltages using a Step Down
Transformer. The intelligent controller distributes power to the
load and batteries when AC power is available and instantly
switches over to DC output only when AC power is lost. The kit
includes valve-regulated lead-acid batteries, outdoor enclosure,
mounting bracket and Smart DC-Battery Power Controller. The
aluminum outdoor enclosure has two 180° door hinges and
a pad lockable latch for security. The enclosure has built in
mounting brackets that support pole and wall mounting.

2.0 Installation
Preparing the Enclosure
The NWKBB100 enclosure has integrated mounting brackets and a bolt on mounting plate simplifying
installation.
Prepare the mounting plate for DIN Rail installation by loosening the screws in the top corners and
removing the mounting plate (the appearance of the included mounting plate may vary).
Place the DIN Rail in its desired location. If the pre drilled holes do not align, use a 5/32 drill bit to
create a new mounting location.
Secure the DIN Rail to the mounting plate using the provided Screw, Washer and Nut.
Re-attach the mounting plate to the enclosure and tighten bolts.

Battery Configuration
One the DIN Rail has been installed and the enclosure has been mounted, setup the batteries.
We provide four 12VDC batteries that will need to be configured in series since our controller will
output 48VDC.
Batteries in Series:
Connect the unterminated end of the Negative wire to port 3 on the controller
Connect the unterminated end of the Positive wire to port 4 on the controller
Note: The controller will not power on till AC power source is detected.
To start the controller on battery power you will need to connect an RTCONN Cable to a switch to
jump start it. Cable is not provided.
