Selecting an External Power Cable
Step 3 of the installation instructions describe the use of an external power cable under
certain circumstances. The external power cable is plugged into jack JP2 to supply
+12 V power for attached cameras.
MVS-8100L boards with board label 801-8136-04 or later have a locking jack at position
JP2. This jack is designed to be used with power cable 300-0391. This cable has a
matching plug that locks firmly into place in the new jack.
MVS-8100L boards with board labels earlier than 801-8136-04 use the original external
power cable, 300-0175.
