how to install Lind Electronics USBC100-5486 DC/DC Adapter

• Plan your installation by confirming that your power source and USB-C PD device are compatible with up to 100W. Route the 36" barewire input cable to a suitable power source location, ensuring there is accessible strain relief and adequate ventilation for heat dissipation during operation.

• Mount the DC/DC adapter in a secure enclosure, panel, or mounting surface that provides ample airflow. Avoid tightly enclosed spaces without ventilation, as sustained high-power delivery can generate heat that needs to be managed for reliability and longevity.

• Connect the barewire input to the power source, making sure to follow proper electrical practices for polarity and termination. Use appropriate connectors or terminal blocks as required by your installation environment to ensure a solid, low-resistance connection.

• Attach the 90° USB-C output cable to your USB-C input port on the target device. Secure the connection with the screw-pin mechanism to prevent accidental disconnection during movement or vibration, especially in mobile or rugged environments.

• Power on the system and verify USB-C Power Delivery negotiation. Confirm that the connected device receives the expected power level and monitor performance for stability, temperature, and any signs of strain on the cables or connections during initial operation.
