FP-PS-4 Operating Instructions

Ensure that all the wiring is installed according to local codes and
regulations by qualified electrical personnel. Follow these steps to
connect the FP-PS-4 to your FieldPoint system.

1. Use a 16 to 26 AWG stranded wire to connect the FP-PS-4 to

your FieldPoint network module or I/O module. Connect the
positive wire to the V terminal and the negative wire to the
C terminal of the FP-PS-4.

2. Connect the other ends of the wires to the V and C terminals of

the FieldPoint network module or I/O module.

3. Ensure that the plug-in AC input terminal connector is plugged

into the input port on the FP-PS-4.

Note

Be careful to install the correct conductor in the

appropriate terminal. The color of the conductor wires
varies depending on North American versus international
standards as described in Figure 7. The wires are drawn
to scale according to the 7 mm (0.275 in.) strip length
requirement.
