Supplying Power to the Controller
The Pointe Controller unit requires a 8-30VDC, 1 Amp power supply. This can be
provided either by using a wall-pluggable AC adapter (part number OL-PS1) or by
connecting the unit directly to a properly rated DC grid. The connection is made
at the Power Input screw terminals located at the bottom left corner of the base
unit.
To connect a power supply to the controller:
1.
Make sure the power is OFF – the AC adapter should be unplugged and/or
the DC grid should be turned off.
2.
Using a regular slotted screwdriver, loosen the Power Input screw
terminals.
3.
Pass the power supply wires through the opening in the bottom of the
controller base unit. Insert the positive wire into the positive terminal (+)
and the negative wire into the negative terminal (-).
4.
Retighten the screw terminals.
5.
Tug gently on the wires to verify that they are properly secured to the
terminals.
The Pointe Controller unit can now be powered on.
