All images are shown looking into the device.

Power

	Pin	Description
	1	24 - 48 V
	2	Device GND

Note: As of February 2022, the power supplies Zaber provides for X-Series devices are isolated and thus the device is not connected to Earth ground.

Note: Prior to 2022, most power supplies provided for X-Series devices were non-isolated. Isolated units can be distinguished by the "S" suffix in their Zaber part number (eg. PS14S), which is marked on the label on the bottom of the power supply.

Indicators

Green - Power

• On: Controller is operational.
• Blinking at 2Hz: The power supply voltage or device temperature is out of range.
• Fading in and out slowly: The device is parked. See the tools parking (T:65) command.

Red - Error
