In power-critical environments the power consumption of WMT700 can
be significantly reduced by using the low-power mode.
CAUTION
There are two terminals connected in parallel for both positive and
negative rails of the heating voltage for the maximum current capacity. In
case the connection cable has parallel supply wires, they all have to be
connected to ensure current capacity. Leaving one terminal unconnected
or connecting it to the ground may cause a WMT700 malfunction or a
short circuit in the power supply.
NOTE
Always use cables that meet the minimum dimension requirements. Long
cables with thin wires cause power losses in the cable and significantly
decrease the heating capabilities of WMT700.
