Installation Instructions
Unit shall be installed in accordance with The National Electrical Code and all applicable Local Regulations.
- Remove the backplane from the enclosure prior to mounting (do not discard hardware).
- Mark and drill desired inlets on the enclosure to facilitate wiring (Fig. 1, 4).
- Mount unit in the desired location. Mark and drill holes to line up with the top and bottom holes of the enclosure flange. Secure the enclosure with appropriate fasteners (Fig. 5, pg. 8 and Fig. 11, 12).
- Mount the backplane to the enclosure with hardware.
- Set the input voltage selector switch for 115VAC or 230VAC operation (Figs. 2-4, 5-7)
- To facilitate wire entry utilize weather-tight NEMA 4-rated connectors, bushings, and cable.
- Set the illuminated master power disconnect circuit breaker to the [OFF] position (Figs. 2-4, pgs. 5-7).
- Connect unswitched AC power (115VAC/230VAC 50/60 Hz) to terminals marked [L, N] (Figs. 2-4, pgs. 4-6). Green branch wire connects to earth (safety) ground lug C)
The wire gauge range of connectors is 14 AWG to 11 AWG (1.6 mm to 2.5 mm diameter). - Set the illuminated master power disconnect circuit breaker to the (RESET/ON) position (Figs. 2-4, pgs.
- WayPoint30A4U/A4DU and WayPoint30A8U/A8DU are factory set for 24VAC operation. For 28VAC operation adjust unit prior to mounting and applying power as follows: Change The wire position so that the black wire [28V] is connected to the terminal marked [P] and the yellow wire [24V] is connected to the terminal marked [S].
- Measure output voltage on terminals marked [COM, 24V, 28V] on WayPoint30AU or WayPoint3OADU (Fig. 2, pg. 5) or [1-4] or [1-8 COM] on WayPoint30A4U, WayPoint30A4DU, WayPoint30A8U and WayPoint30A8DU before connecting devices (Fig. 3, pg. 6, Fig. 4, 7).
This helps avoid potential damage. - Set the illuminated master power disconnect circuit breaker to the [OFF] position (Figs. 2-4, 5-7).
- Connecting devices to WayPoint30AU or WayPoint3OADU:
For 24VAC output connect devices to terminals marked [COM, 24V] (Fig. 2, pg. 5).
For 28VAC output connect devices to terminals marked [COM, 28V] (Fig. 2, pg. 5).
Connecting devices to WayPoint30A4U or WayPoint30A4DU: Connect the device to terminals marked [1-4] and [COM] (Fig. 3, pg. 6).
Connecting devices to WayPoint30A8U or WayPoint30A8DU: Connect the device to terminals marked [1-8] and [COM] (Fig. 4, pg. 7). - Set the illuminated master power disconnect circuit breaker to the [RESET/ON] position (Figs. 2-4, pgs.
- LEDs will illuminate indicating each output is powered (Figs. 2-4, pgs. 5-7).
- Upon completion of wiring secure the enclosure door with latches and optional
Caution: Equipment to be installed/serviced by authorized/trained personnel only. Shut branch circuit power before installing/servicing equipment.
WARNING: When installing in a non-restricted service area use lock or other fastener means on door latches. This installation should be made by qualified service personnel and should conform to all local codes and in accordance with the National Electrical Code.

Pole Mounting Using Optional Pole Mount Kit PMK1:
This installation should be made by qualified service personnel. This product contains no serviceable parts.
PMK1 outdoor pole mount kit is designed to simplify the installation of Altronix outdoor-rated power supplies and accessories housed in models WP1, WP3 and WP4 NEMA-rated enclosures. PMK1 can be mounted on 2” to 8” (50.8mm to 203.2mm) diameter round or 5” (127mm) square poles. Brackets are designed for use with the Wormgear Quick Release Straps (two included).
- Thread one (1) wormgear quick-release strap through the slots on the back of a mounting bracket (Fig. 6, pg. 8).
- Once the desired height of the top Pole Mount bracket is achieved, tighten the straps down by sliding the open the end of the strap through the locking mechanism on the strap, then tighten the screw with flat head screwdriver or 5/16” hex socket driver (Fig. 7, pg. 8 and Fig. 9, pg. 8).

- Attach the bottom bracket to the enclosure by inserting bolts through the flange of the enclosure and into the bracket, tightening bolts with a 7/16” hex socket (Fig. 8, pg. 8).
- Thread the second wormgear quick-release strap through the slots on the back of the bottom mounting bracket (Fig. 9, pg. 8).
- Mount the enclosure onto the top bracket by inserting bolts through the flange of the enclosure and into the bracket, tightening bolts with a 7/16” hex socket (Fig. 7, pg. 8).
- Tighten the straps of the bottom bracket down by sliding the open end of the strap through the locking mechanism on the strap, then tighten the screw with flat head screwdriver or 5/16” hex socket driver (Fig. 7, pg. 8).
- Clip excess straps.

The lightning flash with an arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of an insulated DANGEROUS VOLTAGE within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute an electric shock.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
| CAUTION RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOK DO NOT OPEN |
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock do not open the enclosure.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
