2.1 P OWER I NTERFACES
2.1.1 48 V DC POWER
Rack-mounted or operating stand-alone, the DT-6X60 accepts DC power input directly from a 48 V
DC power source which connects to the three position (return, -48, and ground) terminal block
labeled 48V DC on the faceplate. The terminal block connectors accommodate 10-awg (American
Wire Gauge) to 14-awg wires. A strain-relief clamp is available separately for DC wire stabilization.
The actual voltage range is 18 through 72 volts inclusive.
2.1.2 24 V DC POWER
Rack-mounted or operating stand-alone, the DT-6X60 accepts DC power input directly from a 24 V
DC (nominal) via a circular connector. The circular connector is labeled 24 V DC on the DT-6X60
faceplate. The actual voltage range is 18 through 72 volts inclusive.
2.1.3 AC POWER
For this application, a separate AC power supply is available which plugs into a standard 115/240V
AC outlet. The power supply has a six-foot cable that terminates with a barrel connector. The
barrel connector plugs into the circular connector labeled 24 V DC on the DT-6X60 faceplate.
2.1.4 POWER OVER ETHERNET
The DT-6X60 will accept power on the LAN connection using the POE specification. When used,
no additional power is required by the DT-6X60.
2.2 A LARMS
The Alarm Grid connector is a three position (Failed Open, Closed, Failed Closed) terminal block
labeled ALARM on the DT-6X60 faceplate. The terminal block connectors accommodate 10-awg to
14-awg wires.
2.3 C ONSOLE
06/07/07 Datatek Applications Inc. 10
There are two types of consoles in a DT-6X60: the single platform console, which is accessible via
a hard-wired serial connector or by telnet (to port 1023), and multiple telnet application consoles.
The hard-wired serial console is used for initial configuration of the platform, and the hard-wired
serial console or its telnet equivalent may be used for configuration updates and for installation and
control of applications. Each application telnet console is used to configure the application
database for one instance of an application.
