8. Install the PowerRail Module
The PowerRail module:
• Converts RS-422 signals from the video
controller to RS-232 signals.
• Sends and receives RS-232 signals from the
camera trolley
• Receives video from the camera trolley and
sends it to the video controller for display on a
monitor.
The module mounts to the top of the first rail
section.
Tools, Equipment, and Parts Required for
this Operation
• Proper lift equipment (scissor lift with extended
work platform is recommended)
• PowerRail module
• Power, data, and RF antenna cables
• Crimp connectors.
Procedure
A. Bolt the module to the rail.
45cm (17.7in) from the start end of the rail,
secure the module to the top of the rail using
four plastic screws, washers and M8 nuts
installed in the top grooves of the rail. Ensure
the RF cable from the module reaches the
intended antenna mounting site within the rail.
B. Connect power from the module to the rail.
Attach one end of the 27Vdc and ground wires
to the module, and crimp their other end to the
rail. Ensure wires are long enough to reach the
copper tracks without stretching.
C. Connect data from the module to the rail.
Attach one end of the Tx (RS-232 data) and Rx
(RS-232 data) wires to the module and crimp
their other end to the rail. Ensure wires are long
enough to reach the copper tracks without
stretching.
D. Connect RS-422 data from the video
controller to the module.

E. Connect the RF antenna cable.
Connect the SMA cable to the PowerRail
module; and then run the cable from the
PowerRail module to the location for the RF
receiving antenna.
F. Connect AC to the module.
Have a certified electrician connect the
PowerRail module to the ac power source.
Ensure the power switch on the module is in the
off position.
