Notes:

1. The enclosure on early ReliaGATE 10-20 models indicates a lower limit on the input voltage. While the unit

might run at that voltage, it typically will not start at that voltage.

2. When system power is disconnected, the RTC is battery is powered by a 3V lithium BR1225 coin cell inside

the enclosure.

USB

The ReliaGATE 10-20 includes a seven-port USB hub that controls internal peripherals and provides three ports
for external use. The external ports are designed to support higher-current devices.

Loading 3 usb ports at max capacity could be an issue the extended capability is to provide transient load
support, 5V regulator maxes out at 3A.
