Yeah you have to hook up the power cable. Yellow to constant, black to ground. The red wire is te only one you don't hook up.

I hooked mine up and the unit works, well, I got a bad antenna, but that does not count, I think? :shock:

 

What is the reason for not connecting it?

Not connecting the red wire? It's meant for a standalone when you're not using the ipbus.

Thanks, should I disconnect it since it is part of a bus or does it not matter?

I'd disconnect it. Don't know for sure if it will cause any problems in the long run, but better safe than sorry.
