This allow the user to control the CX23-R power state using a remote switch instead of using the CX23-R power push button. This is useful in situations where the CX23-R is not easily accessible to the test operator.
The remote power switch acts as a “3-way household” switch in conjunction with the CX23-R power push button. It is always active and the user needs to electrically isolate the green wire on the CX23-R input power cable (1-KAB2115 cable) whenever the remote switching capability is not used.
To use the remote power switch, connect the green and black power cables to two contacts of a single pole, single throw contact switch with sufficient current rating (at least 10A recommended).
