5. Persediaan dan Pemasangan
Before proceeding, ensure all power is disconnected from the input source.
5.1. Pemasangan
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. Sambungan Pendawaian
- Kuasa Input: 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).
- Peranti Output: 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.
- Pemasangan fius: 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. Naikkan Kuasa
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. Arahan Operasi
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.
- Pastikan input voltage 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. Penyelenggaraan
The Altronix PD4 requires minimal maintenance. Regular checks can help ensure continued reliable operation.
- Pemeriksaan fius: Periodically inspect fuses for any signs of damage or blowing. Replace blown fuses with the correct type and rating.
- Sambungan Terminal: Ensure all terminal connections remain tight and secure. Loose connections can lead to intermittent power or overheating.
- Pembersihan: Keep the module free from dust and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners.
- Pemeriksaan Alam Sekitar: Sahkan bahawa persekitaran operasi kekal dalam julat suhu dan kelembapan yang ditetapkan.
8. Penyelesaian masalah
| Masalah | Kemungkinan Punca | Penyelesaian |
|---|---|---|
| No power to any output, power LED off. | No input power, incorrect input voltage, 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. |
| Fius kerap meletup. | 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. |
