Wiring Guidelines

The Master card requires 12 VDC power from either a PSN2.8, PSN4.4, or a PSN6.5 NetLinx Power Supply to operate properly. The NXC-ME260 connects to the power supply via a 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix connector located on the faceplate.

This unit should only have one source of incoming power. Using more than one source of power to the Master card can result in damage to the internal components and a possible burn out.

Apply power to the card only after installation is complete.

Preparing captive wires

You will need a wire stripper and flat-blade screwdriver to prepare and connect the captive wires.

Never pre-tin wires for compression-type connections.

1.Strip 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) of insulation off all wires.

2.Insert each wire into the appropriate opening on the connector (according to the wiring diagrams and connector types described in this section).

3.Tighten the screws to secure the wire in the connector. Do not tighten the screws excessively; doing so may strip the threads and damage the connector.
