Power input and installation

The Pickit processor 3.0-b comes with a 19 VDC output power supply adapter.

Note

Replacing the power adapter with a DIN rail power supply is possible. In that case, the DIN power supply should be ITE rated and its power cannot be shared with inductive loads like motors and relays and solenoids.

Two brackets are also included with their mounting screws to allow the installation of this processor on a wall.

The power supply connects to the “DC IN” port on the back side of the processor.

Note

In case of a power failure while the processor is on, it will restart automatically when power is restored. Pickit will start with robot mode enabled, that is, ready to receive robot commands.
