Tube cable preparation procedure:
1)
Remove the insulation of the cable so that a length of 11–14 mm of the
conductor is exposed, and put the cable through a cable marking sleeve.
2) Insert the exposed end into the hole of the cable lug, and then crimp it with
the recommended crimping tool.
3) Insert the cable lug into the stud terminal block and fasten it with a
screwdriver, with a tightening torque not more than 5 in-lbs.

When the power cable, grounding cable, CAN cable, and RS485 cable use tube
cables, a length of 6–10 mm of the conductor must be exposed. For other signal
cables, the length must be 11–14 mm.
