ClareOne 9
Power supply options
The ClareOne Panel has 2 power options: localized (using provided power
supply with micro USB within 6 ft of the installation location) and remote (using
CAT5/6 or 22AWG or thicker shielded security wire to extend the reach up to
100 ft from the installation location).
Localized power
The power supply provided with panel come with a 6 ft micro USB cable
attached.
Note: Only use the provided 12VDC power supply. Do not use any other power
supply with the panel.
To use localized power:
1. Remove the panel’s back plate by pressing down on the 2 tabs and pulling
the back plate outward.
2. Plug the micro USB cable into the panel’s micro USB DC port. See Figure 3:
ClareOne Panel - interior rear on page 4.
3. Replace the back plate, and then plug the power supply into the closest wall
outlet.
Note: Do not connect to a receptacle controlled by a switch.
Remote power
For installation locations that are further than 6 ft from the nearest outlet, the
power supply cable can be removed and replaced with a CAT5/6 cable or a
22AWG or thicker shielded security wire. This allows the power supply to be
located up to 100 ft away from the panel. For details regarding wire gauges and
distance, see ClareOne Remote Power Tech Bulletin (DOC ID 1937).
Note: When using CAT5/6 cable the single wires must have a minimum gauge of
24AWG. In addition, a twisted pair of the wires must be used to connect to each
of the positive and negative terminals in order to reach 100 ft.
To power a panel more than 6 ft away from an outlet:
1. Remove the panel’s back plate by pressing down on the 2 tabs and pulling
the back plate outward, exposing the rear interior.
2. Carefully insert the positive end of the wire into the positive terminal of the DC
power terminal.
