4.0 Installation and Application Before connecting any components, follow the safety information in the ETS-Lindgren Product Information Bulletin included with your shipment.
The input power connection is made through a three-wire power cord utilizing the accepted international color code. The input power cord opening is sized to accept a standard electrical conduit fitting or strain relief (supplied). An internally-mounted terminal strip provides the input connection point. When connecting the conduit, disconnect the power cord from the terminal strip and remove it.
LINE SELECT SWITCH Select the line to be monitored by the three-position selector switch. The line not selected is internally terminated into 50 ohms. When using the remote (center) position, connect the monitored line to the 9-pin connector on the rear panel. Control signals are low-level 5 volt DC. To monitor Line L1, apply +5VDC to pin 1 of the 9-pin connector. To monitor L2, apply +5VDC to pin 3.
Back Panel Connectors POWER INPUT The input power connection is made through a jacketed three-conductor power cable. This three-conductor power cable is rated at 16 amperes maximum. In case of emergency, power can be removed from the unit by disconnecting the Model 3816/2 input power plug from the power mains. Alternately, a properly rated circuit breaker or switch which removes mains power from the unit can be installed in proximity to the unit. RF GROUND See description on page 14.
