6 Protections
6.1 Supply circuit
The supply circuit is protected by a resettable fuse internal to the module.
If this LED is off and the product is however powered, disconnect the power for 10 seconds
to allow the internal fuse module to reset.
A suitable and identified device, to isolate the power supply of the product must be
positioned near the product and without restriction in its operation.
The presence of the power supply is confirmed by a green LED in close proximity of the
terminals 201 and 202.
