Installing Power and Ethernet Cables
The DC600 electronics module contains input points for power and Ethernet cables. To power the DC600 and connect the
Ethernet cable:
1. Remove the four screws that secure the cable entry module to the top of the DC600.
Figure 2-6. Cable Entry Module
2. Remove the cable entry module.
3. Obtain conduit fittings for the two cable openings in the cable entry module, depending on the cable conduits used. Nominal
conduit fitting trade size is 0.75 in (1.9 cm) diameter.
4. Insert the Ethernet cable conduit into the communications cable opening in the cable entry module.
5. Route the Ethernet cable from its conduit to the reader. For dual DC600 models, remove one of the top antennas to facilitate
routing to the reader.
6. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the reader.
7. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the host device.
8. Insert the power cable conduit into the power cable opening in the cable entry module.
9. Route the power cable from its conduit to the plug provided.
10. Open the plug and connect the three power cable wires to the terminals inside the plug, then close the plug.
11. Connect the plug to the socket of the IEC 320 module on top of the electronics module.
12. Plug the other end of the power cable into an AC power source.
The DC600 power switch is located on the IEC 320 power entry module. Turn the switch on or off as desired
before replacing the cable entry module.
13. Replace the cable entry module by securing with the four screws removed in Step 1.
