Optional power connection

The LOCAL module has a power socket, however, as power is derived from the host system keyboard connection, it is generally not necessary to use a power supply unit.

In situations where a keyboard connection to the host system is not used, the LOCAL module will require a separate power supply unit of the same type as supplied for use with the REMOTE module. Separate power supply units are available from Adder Technology Limited direct

(www.shop.adder.com) or from your local supplier - part number: PSU-IEC- 5VDC.
