Connecting the momentary trigger accessory

- The trigger wiring can extend up to 3m (10’) using Cat5 or other conductors 24AWG or larger.
ACC port connection
- This adapter is OvrC enabled. To unlock the adapter features in OvrC, you must connect it to a compatible 800-series WattBox PDU on firmware version 2.5.0.8 or newer.
- Use TIA-568B Cat5e/6 complying with the NEC type cables category DUZX no longer than 15m (50’) to connect the Accessory Adapter to an 800 series PDU. This connection provides power to the adapter.
Note: The WB-800CH1U-IPVM-8 is not compatible.
It takes about two to three minutes for OvrC to recognize the Accessory
Adapter.
