About the coaxial cables
Use the following length and type of coaxial cable to connect the infrared receivers and the infrared sensors.
•
Length of coaxial cable: Less than 20 m {66 feet}
•
Type of coaxial cable: RG-6U
•
When connecting a single Infrared Sensor (EDS-07)
Make a connection so that the length between the Infrared Sensor (EDS-07) and this unit is kept within a range of 20 m
{66 feet}.
•
When connecting two or more Infrared Sensors (EDS-07) by utilizing the Infrared
Sensor Coupler (AE-DCF)
"Coaxial cable: A" : the coaxial cable length from the Infrared Receiver to the Infrared Sensor Coupler.
"Coaxial cable: B to E" : the coaxial cable length from the Infrared Sensor Coupler to each Infrared Sensor.
•
The total length of the longest cable length among "Coaxial cable B-E" plus "Coaxial cable A" should be kept
under 20 m {66 feet}.
[Good example]
Coaxial cable length: A = 5 m {16.4 feet}, B = 8 m {26 feet}, C = 4 m {13 feet}, D = 6 m {20 feet}, E = 10 m {33 feet}
Total cable length: A: 5 m {16.4 feet} + E: 10 m {33 feet} = 15 m {49.2 feet}
This is less than the limit 20 m {66 feet}, therefore, there is no problem.
[Bad example]
Coaxial cable length: A = 15 m {49.2 feet}, B = 8 m {26 feet}, C = 4 m {13 feet}, D = 6 m {20 feet}, E = 10 m {33 feet}
Total cable length: A: 15 m {49.2 feet} + E: 10 m {33 feet} = 25 m {82 feet}
This is over the limit 20 m {66 feet}, therefore, there is a problem with a length.
Note:
•
Check the specifications of both the F-connector and the coaxial cable to ensure that they match before assembling.
Follow the instructions of the F-connector to assemble securely.
•
In order to make the connections secure, use screw-type F-connectors.
