Overall Wiring Diagram 

 
This diagram shows the overall wiring scheme. Once familiar with this set up, making the actual 
cables will be easier 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

DXE-CW9S

 is a shielded control cable that has 10-conductors and works very well for running 

control signals for the 

DXE-RR2X8

 and 

DXE-MX2X8

.  

 

Note:  

Do not seal the connectors! The connectors are recessed inside a drip edge that prevents 
water from getting into connectors. The cover-to-connector plate junction is not sealed so 
the unit can "breathe” and eliminate condensation.
