3.3. Installing and Operating the Optional MPC-DISPLAY Hardware

Use the supplied RJ-45 cable to connect the optional MPC-DISPLAY unit to the MPC unit. Connect one end of the RJ-45 cable to the “Remote” connector on the MPC front panel; connect the other end of the cable to the RJ-45 receptacle on the back side of the MPC-DISPLAY unit.

Note: The AUX Ports, located adjacent to the Remote port on the MPC front panel, are used for connection to additional, remote MPC units. For more information on connecting an MPC-DISPLAY unit or additional MPC units to the AUX or Remote ports, please refer to Sections 4.5 and 5.8.2 and Appendix C.2.

The MPC-DISPLAY unit will receive five volts of power (for operation) via the RJ-45 cable connected to the MPC unit.

To display amperage, kilowatts, volts and temperature for the MPC units that are attached to the MPC-DISPLAY, press the “Display” button to toggle to the LED for the desired MPC unit, and then press the “Display Selection” button several times to select the desired reading; each time the “Display Selection” button is pressed, the LED indicator adjacent to the button will toggle from Amps to kiloWatts to Volts to Temperature.

This completes the Quick Start Guide for the MPC. Prior to placing the unit into operation, it is recommended to refer to the remainder of this User’s Guide for important information regarding advanced configuration capabilities and more detailed operation instructions.
