Power Port

This electrical port allows EXO to connect to a power supply and charge its battery pack while it continues to monitor an area. Currently, two EXO accessories can be attached to this port:

  • Trickle Charger allows EXO to be hardwired directly to a power source.

  • Solar Panel allows EXO to be powered in remote areas through solar energy.

Warning:

Cables attached to the power port are only intrinsically safe when properly set up with an electrical barrier.

Cable requirements

EXO’s power port is fitted with a male M12 4 pin plug. Electrical cables with a female M12 4 pin receptacle are required to connect to this port.
