Installation Instructions:

Wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National Electrical Code/NFPA 70/NFPA 72/ANSI,

with Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1, and with all local codes and authorities having jurisdiction.

Product is intended for indoor use only and should be installed by qualified personnel.

1. Mount VR6 in the desired location/enclosure.

Note: If VR6 needs to be elevated above the mounting surface, use included spacers (regular for VR6

only, male/female for mounting with PDS8/PDS8CB). Make sure to use metal spacer under the mounting

hole with star pattern (Fig. 2b, pg. 3).

2. Connect 24VDC power source to the terminals marked [+ IN –] (Fig. 1 pg. 2).

3. Select output voltage 5VDC or 12VDC using switch [S1].

4. Connect power distribution module to the terminals marked [+ OUT –] (Fig. 1 pg. 2).

Connecting PDS8/PDS8CB Board to VR6:

Refer to PDS8/PDS8CB Installation Guide Rev. 070116

1. Mount VR6 in the desired location/enclosure.

2. Plug-in male 8-pin connector to female 8-pin receptacle on VR6 board (Fig. 2a, pg. 3).

3. Fasten spacers (Fig. 2, pg. 3). Use metal spacer over mounting hole with star pattern (Fig. 2b, pg. 3).

4. Align 8-pin male connector with female receptacle of PDS8/PDS8CB, then mount (Fig. 2, pg. 2, Fig. 3a, pg. 4).

5. Connect 24VDC power supply to terminal marked [+ IN1 –] of PDS8/PDS8CB (Fig. 2, pg. 3).

6. Set each output (OUT1-OUT8) on PDS8/PDS8CB to route power from power supply 1 or 2

(jumper positions <1 OFF 2>) (Fig. 3, pg. 4).

Note: Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoiding potential damage.

7. Turn power off before connecting devices.

8. Connect devices to terminal pairs 1 to 8, marked [P (Positive) - OUT1-OUT8, N (Negative)] (Fig. 3, pg. 4).

Note: For DC devices carefully observe polarity.

9. After all devices have been connected turn power on.
