DC Power Connection
The KBox E-410-APL is connected by a 3-pin Phoenix connector (Figure 1, pos. 1) via a DC power supply wiring to a DC
power source.
In case you order a power adapter from Kontron, the KBox E-410-APL is delivered with a power adapter with a 3-pin
Phoenix power plug terminal attached as well as a power cord, For DC power connection, users can use the power
cord and power adapter to carry AC power from AC power source and then convert it into DC 24 V.
In case of not ordering a power adapter, the KBox E-410-APL is delivered with a 3-pin Phoenix power plug terminal
attached on the system. For DC connection, prepare the connecting wires using the supplied Phoenix power plug
terminal. DC power voltage should be 15 V ~ 35 V.
In case the supplied power adapter and Phoenix plug terminal are separated from each
other per your ordered configuration, the white wire of the adapter carries the positive
(+) end while the black one carries the negative (-) end.
