The AC power source includes a 4-pin slot plugin to connect directly to the router. The purpose of this configuration is to allow for using a 4-wire/GPIO cable to hardwire power for DC connections or use GPIO. Refer to the following for pin configuration:
PIN | Wire Color | Definition | Details | ||
1 | Black | Ground | Ground | ||
2 | Red | Power | 9-33 VDC | ||
3 | Orange | Input | 3V Input High Threshold (36V tolerant) | ||
4 | Blue | Output | General purpose I/O (GPIO) |
Insert the 4-pin end of the power source into the four-pin port on the router, ensuring appropriate alignment of pins as illustrated above.
Plug the adapter into an electrical socket.
Allow 1 minute for the router to run through its bootup sequence.
