AC Power Supply: Connect the locking barrel end of the power supply to the MAIN connector on the unit, and plug the other end into a wall outlet. International units come with interchangeable power supply adapters. DC Power Cord: Connect the locking barrel or the 4-pin connector of the cord to the MAIN power port on the unit, and wire the four bare wires according to your needs. The red and black wires provide basic DC power input, and the blue and green wires are programmable signal lines. Fleet Power Cord: Connect the 4-pin connector to the MAIN port on the unit. Connect the locking barrel jack to the MAIN connector on the unit. Finally, wire the two bare wires according to your needs.
