B4.0 INSTALLATION
This section describes the installation of the 48 VDC power source leads to the 48
VDC power terminal block on the Magnum DS880s. (see figure below).
Figure B4.1: 48 VDC Terminal Block
on Magnum DS880-48VDC
The 48 VDC terminal block on
the Magnum DS880s is located on the rear
of the unit and is equipped with three (3)
screw-down lead posts. The leads are
identified as negative (-), positive (+), and chassis ground (GND). The actual connection
procedure is very straightforward. To avoid the confusion of -48V or +48V power supply,
use a digital voltmeter to measure the output voltage and figure out the +VE Lead. The
more +VE voltage terminal lead from the +48V or-48V power supply should be
connected to the post leveled “+” and then the rest. Ensure that each lead is securely
tightened.
