A Phillips head screwdriver is required to wire the head transmitter with screw terminals.
Use a flat blade screwdriver for the DIN rail housing version with screw terminals. The
push-in terminal version can be wired without any tools.
Proceed as follows to wire a head transmitter mounted in the terminal head or field
housing:
1. Open the cable gland and the housing cover on the terminal head or the field
housing.
2. Feed the cables through the opening in the cable gland.
3. Connect the cables as shown in → 19. If the head transmitter is fitted with push-
in terminals, pay particular attention to the information in the "Connecting to push-in
4. Tighten the cable gland again and close the housing cover.
In order to avoid connection errors always follow the instructions in the post-connection
check section before commissioning!
