Description The WCS1-4 is a single power supply designed for indoor or outdoor applications and is ideal for use with cameras, domes, and integrated positioning systems such as Spectra® and Esprit®. The WCS1-4 power supply has one fused output and is capable of handling up to 4 amps (100 VA) of total load. The unit features selectable 100/120/240 VAC input power, selectable 24/26/28 VAC output power, and a stainless steel link-lock latch that can be secured with padlock (padlock not provided).
FUSE INSTALLATION The WCS1-4 power supply is shipped from the factory with a 1.6 A fuse installed for 100/120 VAC input power. To use input power of 240 VAC, change the 1.6 A fuse to a 500 mA fuse (supplied). To change the fuse remove the lid to the fuse holder (refer to Figure 4) located inside the power supply and then install the new fuse. Store extra fuses (supplied) in the spare fuse holders. INPUT POWER WIRING WARNING: The WCS1-4 does not have an on/off switch.
