INSTALLATION
NOTE:
For
ALL
QSI electronic modules.
1. Make sure the QSI module and meter are disconnected from power source.
2. Select the mounting location and mount the remote module using the (4)
mounting ears on the base. The holes in the ears will accommodate a 1/4 in.
diameter bolt or screw. The remote can be mounted in any orientation.
3. Remove the (6) #8-16 x 3/4 in. screws attaching the module cover plate to the
base and separate. Do not damage the seal between the two components (see
Figure 2).
4. To route external power and/or electronic cables to the QSI PC board screw
connectors, prepare the cover plate by removing the plug and sealing washer
from each port that you intend to use. Replace the removed plugs with a strain
relief with O-ring. The strain relief will accommodate cable sizes of 0.11 in. (2.8
mm) through 0.26 in. (6.6 mm) diameter. Leave the factory installed plugs in
any unused ports.
5. (Make sure the power is disconnected from external cables before beginning
this step): Route external cables through the strain relief(s), and then tighten
the dome nut securely around the cable to provide an environmental seal.
6. Connect cable wires to the QSI PC board screw connectors (or) to the Coil A
and Coil B non-polarized wires (if using an unpowered pick-up coil on your
device). (See Figure 4, 6, or 8 depending on your module version).
NOTE:
The Coil A and Coil B wire ends are sealed with insulating tape. Do not
remove the tape unless connecting to these two wires.
If using an “unpowered coil” as inputs, remove the tape from wire ends and connect
either wire to either of the Coil A or Coil B wires from the PC board, using the
enclosed butt-splice connectors (see Figure 2). Crimp connector to splice wires
together and release insulation gel. Repeat with the remaining sensor and PC
board wire.
NOTE:
If your installation will be using the “pulse input” screw connectors on the
PC board, and definitely have no need of the Coil A and Coil B wires for
“unpowered coil” inputs, the (2) wires may be snipped off as close to the PC board
as possible. However, doing that will render the “unpowered coil” inputs to Coil A
and Coil B circuits unusable.
7. Mount the cover plate on the base making sure the seal is seated properly
between them. Replace the (6) previously removed screws to secure the cover
plate to the base. Tighten screws.
8. Connect power to QSI module and meter.
