PS 124 • Installation Guide (Continued)
Input Power — Using the Flexible Conduit Adapter Kit
The optional Flexible Conduit Adapter Kit provides a convenient means to replace the IEC power cord with conduit when required
by local codes. For more information go to www.extron.com. Make certain the PS 124 and all connected devices are turned off
and disconnected from the power source before beginning.
ATTENTION:
• For permanently connected equipment, there must be a readily accessible disconnect device incorporated in the building
installation wiring.
• Pour les équipements branchés en permanence, un dispositif d’isolement rapidement accessible doit être intégré à
l’installation électrique du bâtiment.
• The circuit breaker used for this connection should be rated 20 amps maximum.
• Le disjoncteur utilisé pour cette connexion doit avoir une tension nominale de 20 A max.
Output Power — Wiring the DC Output Connectors
The PS 124 can supply 12 VDC to multiple devices using 3.5mm, 2‑pole captive screw connectors. The combined current draw
of the connected devices must not exceed 4 amps.
ATTENTION:
• To verify proper polarity before connection to a device, plug in the power supply with no load and check the output
polarity with a voltmeter. Remove power before wiring.
• Pour vérifier la polarité avant la connexion, brancher l’alimentation hors charge et mesurer sa sortie avec un voltmètre.
Couper l’alimentation avant de faire l’installation électrique.
• Ensure that you observe correct wire polarity. The two power cord wires must be kept separate while the power supply is
plugged in.
• Assurez‑vous de respecter la polarité correcte du câble. Les deux cordons d’alimentation doivent être maintenus à
l’écart tant que la source d’alimentation est branchée.
To connect products to the outputs of the PS 124:
1. Cut the DC output cord to the length required.
2. Strip the jacket of the conductor wire (see the

image on the right).
ATTENTION:
• The length of the exposed wires in the
stripping process is critical. The ideal
length is 3/16 inches (5 mm). Any longer
and the exposed wires may touch, causing
a short circuit between them. Any shorter
and the wires can be easily pulled out even
if tightly fastened by the captive screws.
• La longueur des câbles exposés est
primordiale lorsque l’on entreprend de les
dénuder. La longueur idéale est de 5mm
(3/16inches). S’ils sont trop longs, les
câbles exposés pourraient se toucher et
provoquer un court‑circuit. S’ils sont trop
courts, ils peuvent être tirés facilement,
même s’ils sont correctement serrés par les
borniers à vis.
• Do not tin the stripped power supply leads before installing the captive screw connector. Tinned wires are not as
secure in the captive screw terminals and could pull out.
• Les câbles étamés ne sont pas aussi bien fixés dans les borniers à vis et pourraient s’arracher. Ne pas étamer le
câble d’alimentation dénudé avant d’avoir installé le bornier à vis.
3. Slide the leads into the supplied 2‑pole captive screw plug and secure them using an Extron Tweeker or small screwdriver.
4. Use the supplied tie wrap to strap the power cord to the extended tail of the connector.

Mounting the PS 124
There are several optional accessories for mounting the PS 124 (see the mounting options at www.extron.com).
UL Rack Mounting Guidelines
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the installation of the PS 124 into a rack.
• Elevated operating ambient temperature — If installed in a closed or multi‑unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consider installing the equipment in an
environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature specied by Extron (Tma = +32 to +122 °F [0 to +50 °C]).
• Reduced air flow — Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air ow required for safe
operation of the equipment is not compromised.
• Mechanical loading — Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved
due to uneven mechanical loading.
• Circuit overloading — Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the
effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of
equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
• Reliable earthing (grounding) — Reliable earthing of rack‑mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention
should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (such as the use of power strips).
Rack Mounting
For optional rack mounting, mount up to four PS 124 power supplies on a Universal Rack Shelf (see figure4) (see rack mounting
options at www.extron.com).
Use 2 mounting holes on
opposite corners.

Under-desk Mounting
In addition to using the PS 124 power supply on a rack or projector, it can also be mounted under furniture (such as a desk) using
an under‑desk mounting kit (see under‑desk mounting options at www.extron.com).
To mount the PS 124 under a desk or other furniture, follow these steps:
1. Attach the mounting brackets to the power supply with the provided machine screws (see figure5).
2. Hold the power supply with the attached brackets against the underside of the furniture. Mark the location of the screw holes
of the bracket on the mounting surface.
3. Drill 3/32 inch (2 mm) diameter pilot holes, 1/4 inch (6.3 mm) deep in the mounting surface at the marked screw locations.
4. Insert #8 wood screws into the four pilot holes. Tighten each screw into the mounting surface until just less than 1/4 inch of
the screw head protrudes.
