wires here
1.
Pull the Belden 8471 (or equivalent) and 14 AWG (2.5 mm
2
) ground
wire to the installation location.
2.
If you are installing the sensor in series with other sensors or
stations (continuing the data run), use the provided EchoConnect
pigtail, ESD ground pigtail and connectors (not provided) to make the
terminations. Termination connectors are not provided. If you are not
continuing the data run, proceed
to Step 3.
a.
Strip each wire to the appropriate length, depending on the
wire nut or other termination used.
b.
Twist the data - (typically black) EchoConnect wire, the black
lead from the EchoConnect pigtail, and any continuing
EchoConnect (typically black) wire together and secure with the
wire nut.
c.
Repeat the above steps for the data + (typically white)
EchoConnect wire, and for the ESD ground wires.
3.
Create a hole for wire pass-through in the ceiling tile by poking
through the center hole or oblong hole of the mounting plate, then pull
the wires through.
4.
Orient the smooth side of the mounting plate to the finished side of
the ceiling tile and align and insert the soft ceiling tile adapter through
the holes provided near the center of the mounting plate. Reference
the graphic above.
5.
Poke the tines of the adapter through the ceiling tile, then bend each
tine over in opposite directions for a secure fit on the unfinished side
of the ceiling tile.
