    Question ATO power supply

    Hi, I have just purchased the ATO kit along with the Apex 2016 Kit. This might be a silly question, but our South African wall socket outlets are 220V - can/do I connect my ATO power supply to my Apex Energy Bar?
    Thanks
    Andrew

    Yes. Just double check that the power supply you have says universal 110-240V. If not you will need to use a travel adaptor transformer or get a different supply with the same output amp and volt ratings and same pin type.

    You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.

    Thanks for the reply!! The Apex will go into the mains no problem, but the ATO is a 25V DC...... I dont think the ATO can connect to the 2016 Apex cant see a port

    The port is on the FMM and powered by the 24V power supply. Hence why you need it. The only other places to get that port is on an EB832 which is US only right now and on a 1link.

    Right here. After verifying the power supply is universal or a different one is sourced.
