RS-232 and IR Connector Wiring
NOTES:
•
The length of exposed wires is critical. The ideal length is 3/16 inch (5 mm).
•
If the stripped section of wire is longer than 3/16 inch, the exposed wires may
touch, causing a short circuit.
•
If the stripped section of wire is shorter than 3/16 inch, wires can be easily pulled
out even if tightly fastened by the captive screws.
•
Do not tin the power supply leads before installing them in the connector. Tinned
wires are not as secure in the connector and could be pulled out.
