24 VDC Option (Low Voltage Terminal)

The 8247-x2x, 8247-2xx, 8248-x2x and the 8248-2xx chassis require
9-24 VDC/1.5 Amps power input. The appropriate overload protection should
be provided at the power source. To power the chassis using 24 VDC power
source, locate the 24 VDC circuit breaker and switch the circuit breaker to the
off position. Prepare the power cable using a two-conductor insulated wire
with a 14 AWG gauge (not supplied). Cut the power cable to the length required.
Strip approximately 3/8 of an inch of insulation from the power cable wires.
Connect the power cable to the chassis by fastening the stripped ends to the 24
VDC power connector. Repeat the process if the chassis was ordered with the
additional low voltage terminal option.

Warning: Note the wire colors used in making the positive, negative and
ground connections. Use the same color assignment for the connection
at the circuit breaker.

Note: The 9-24VDC power input can accept an input voltage up to 28VDC.

Connect the power wires to the circuit breaker and switch the circuit breaker
ON. Confirm that the unit has powered up properly by checking the power
status LED located on the front of the installed

chassis. See Section 3.2 for the

details concerning the operation and definition of the front panel LEDs.
