7. Apply power to the MVP-WDS by connecting the terminal end of the power cable to the power
supply.
8. Press the Cradle Activation pushbutton to cause the MVP Support Cradle to angle backwards and
lie flush against the main unit.
9. Remove the two adhesive plastic Die Cut Foam covers (60-5965-47) from the strip included within
the Installation Kit bag.
10. Adhere these two plastic Die Cut Foam covers into the two notches where the Faceplate Security
Screws are located.
Refer to the Securing an MVP Panel to an MVP-WDS section on page 16 and Removing an MVP
Panel from an MVP-WDS section on page 17.
Connecting a Power Supply
The MVP-WDS Docking Station receives power from a 12-VDC compliant power supply using a 2-pin
3.5 mm mini-Phoenix connector.
Powering the MVP-WDS
The MVP-WDS uses a 12-VDC compliant power supply (not included) to provide power to the MVP
panel, while charging internal batteries. Once MVP batteries are fully charged, the MVP-WDS begins
charging MVP-BP batteries inserted within its battery compartments.
1. Connect the terminal end of the power supply to the rear PWR connector on the WDS.
2. Provide power to the MVP-WDS by connecting the AC power cord to an external power source.
Initially, both blue LEDs illuminate and remain dim (indicating that the power is being supplied to the
MVP-WDS).
Using the 3.5mm mini-Phoenix Connector for Power
To use the 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix connector for use with a 12 VDC-compliant power supply, the
incoming PWR and GND wires from the external source must be connected to their corresponding
locations on the connector (FIG. 15) to provide power to the MVP-WDS.
Verify that the power supply is not receiving power.
1. Insert the PWR and GND wires on the terminal end of the 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix cable. Match
the wiring locations of the +/- on both the power supply and the terminal connector.
2. Tighten the clamp to secure the two wires. Do not overtighten the screws - doing so could damage
the wires.
3. Verify the connection of the 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix to the power supply, and apply power.
Static electricity can damage electronic circuitry. Before touching the unit, discharge
any accumulated static electricity from your body by touching a grounded metal
object.
