CThe length of exposed wires is critical. Ideal length is 3/16” (5 mm). If the stripped section of wire is longer than 3/16” the exposed wires may touch, causing a short circuit. If the stripped section of wire is shorter, wires can easily be pulled out even if tightly fastened by the captive screws.

NDo not tin the stripped leads! Tinned wires are not as secure in the captive screw and direct insertion connectors and could be pulled out.

Verify the polarity before connection! Plug in the power supply in with no load and check the output with a voltmeter.

WThe two power cord wires must be kept separate while the power supply is plugged in. Remove power before wiring.

Use the supplied tie-wrap to strap the power cord to the extended tail of the connector.

NThe transmitter/receiver pair may have shipped with a blue captive screw connector. This connector does not include the extended tail or tie‑wrap but can be plugged into either a blue or an orange power receptacle.

Transmitter/receiver combinations containing new generation, non-jumpered (mono audio) units cannot be powered from a single supply. The following table shows the combination of old and new generation MTP units (jumper configured to the stereo audio position) capable of remote powering (See "Signal Jumpers for Generational Compatibity" on page 1-3).

NWhen configured for stereo audio, a single power supply connected to either the transmitter or receiver can power both units if there is less than 500 feet (150 meters) of STP/UTP/FTP cable between the two. If the transmitter and receiver are separated by greater than 500 feet, connect a power supply to both units regardless of the model and jumper configuration.

G Power LED — Indicates power is applied to the MTP.
