SimplyCosmic Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 (edited) I was gifted a Gen4 Mini Director with MP3 Player (uMP3g4) but it doesn't appear to have a power adapter. Is there a replacement that I can purchase? I appreciate all your help. Edited August 25, 2020 by SimplyCosmic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 (edited) The director doesn't come with a power adapter, it is powered by the nearest controller through the cat5 cable. Edited August 26, 2020 by Mr. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDucks Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 What Mr P said. NORMALLY If you have really long cables between the director and the controller, you can use a commonly found, 12VDC wall wort CENTER + (most of the LOR boards with barrel cons, use this same.) 💡 Many Security Cameras use this. As I said COMMON as dirt 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimplyCosmic Posted October 11, 2020 Author Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) Thanks. For some reason it refused to power on with just an ethernet cable connected to the 16 channel controller, so I ended up with a 12-volt adapter that works fine with it.
