DC Power Connections
For base station installations, Yaesu recommends the use
of the Model
FP-1030A
AC Power Supply. The
FP-
1030A
provides a regulated 13.8 V DC supply at up to 25
Ampere.
Other models of DC power supplies may be used with the
VX-1700
, but the 13.8 V DC input voltage, 25 Ampere
current capability, and DC cable polarity guidelines de-
scribed previously must be strictly followed.
If you are connecting the
FP-1030A
with the
VX-1700
for the first time, before connecting power check the
label in the rear of the
FP-1030A
which indicates the
AC mains voltage for which the supply is currently
set.
C
AUTION
!
Permanent damage can result if improper sup-
ply voltage is applied to this transceiver. Your warranty
does not cover damage caused by application of AC, re-
versed polarity DC, or DC outside of the specified range
of 13.8 V ±15%. If using a power supply other than the
FP-1030A
, ensure that the DC supply connector to the
transceiver matches the
VX-1700
wiring configuration.
Other manufacturers may utilize power supplies with a
physically matched connector that is wired differently; this
will cause serious damage to the
VX-1700
transceiver!
