Frequently Asked Questions
What environments are prohibited for using this product?
Do not use it in areas subject to direct sunlight, wearing weather, or where dust, iron powder, or corrosive gases (like sulfuric or ammonia) exist.
How must the input voltage be provided during operation?
When turning on power, ensure the supply remains within 1 second of the time of first electricity supply, and use an appropriate transformer for the rated burden.
What safety precautions are required when wiring high voltages?
Do not wire lines carrying high voltages or currents in parallel with or on the same cable as power lines. Use separate ducts and shield lines where possible.
Can I modify terminal wiring if using front screws?
Yes, when attaching with front screws, you can draw out hooks on the bottom of the product to connect signals from both the left and right sides.
