5. Configurazione e installazione
Before proceeding, ensure all power is disconnected from the input source.
5.1. Montaggio
The PD4 module can be mounted using screws through the designated mounting holes on the board. Choose a secure, dry location with adequate ventilation.
5.2. Collegamenti elettrici
- Potenza in ingresso: Connect the 12-24VDC power source to the input terminals labeled 'MAIN FUSE' or similar input terminals. Observe correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative).
- Dispositivi di uscita: Connect your devices requiring power to the four (4) output terminal pairs (1P/1N, 2P/2N, 3P/3N, 4P/4N). Each output is individually protected by a fuse. Ensure the total current draw for all connected devices does not exceed 10A.
- Installazione del fusibile: Insert the appropriate fuses into the designated fuse holders for each output. Refer to the markings on the board for recommended fuse ratings.

5.3. Accendi
Once all connections are secure and fuses are in place, apply power to the input terminals. The power indicator LED (if present) on the board should illuminate, indicating proper power input.
6. Istruzioni per l'uso
The Altronix PD4 operates automatically once power is supplied. It distributes the input power to the four connected output devices, with each output protected by its respective fuse. There are no user-adjustable settings or controls on the module itself beyond the initial wiring and fuse selection.
- Assicurare il volume di inputtage is within the specified 12-24VDC range.
- Monitor the power indicator LED to confirm the module is receiving power.
- If an output device is not receiving power, check its corresponding fuse.
7. Manutenzione
The Altronix PD4 requires minimal maintenance. Regular checks can help ensure continued reliable operation.
- Ispezione del fusibile: Periodically inspect fuses for any signs of damage or blowing. Replace blown fuses with the correct type and rating.
- Connessioni terminali: Ensure all terminal connections remain tight and secure. Loose connections can lead to intermittent power or overheating.
- Pulizia: Mantenere il modulo libero da polvere e detriti. Utilizzare un panno morbido e asciutto per la pulizia. Non utilizzare detergenti liquidi.
- Controllo ambientale: Verificare che l'ambiente operativo rimanga entro gli intervalli di temperatura e umidità specificati.
8. Risoluzione Dei Problemi
| Problema | Possibile causa | Soluzione |
|---|---|---|
| No power to any output, power LED off. | Nessuna potenza in ingresso, volume in ingresso erratotage, main fuse blown. | Check input power source. Verify input voltage. Replace main fuse if blown (ensure correct rating). |
| No power to a specific output, other outputs working. | Blown fuse for that specific output, faulty wiring to the device. | Identify and replace the blown output fuse. Check wiring to the affected device. |
| I fusibili saltano frequentemente. | Overcurrent draw from connected device, short circuit in wiring or device. | Reduce load on the output. Inspect wiring and connected device for short circuits. Ensure correct fuse rating. |
| Module feels excessively hot. | Overload, insufficient ventilation, loose connections. | Reduce total load. Ensure adequate airflow. Tighten all terminal connections. |
