Power Status — Installation Considerations

Proper Power Supply

If status is being supplied from a switched outlet you must connect a Niles 12vDC wall adapter (Niles FG01035) into the switched AC power outlet of the preamp/receiver in your system. Any 12vDC power supply with a minimum of 100mA current capacity can be substituted.

Extending the Cable

If you must extend the cable from the wall adapter to the MSU140’s status input jack be sure to maintain correct polarity. The tip of the plug should be positive (+) and the sleeve negative (-). Any 16 gauge 2-conductor cable can be used to extend the power status cable up to 200 feet.

Checking the Power Supply

It is possible to check the status power supply itself and any connections that were made to extend the cable by inserting the status plug into the Power jack on the MSU140. If the Power LED lights the status power supply and connections are ok. If the Power LED does not light check all connections and replace the power supply if necessary. For more details on incorporating the IntelliPad please refer to the IntelliPad’s users manual.

System expansion using an IRH610

The Niles IRH610 can be used to expand an MSU140 beyond a single sensor input. See Figure 8. The IRH610 will allow system expansion to up to six locations. Contact your local authorized Niles dealer or refer to the owner’s manual for the IRH610 for details.
