RC-13TC - Grounding the RC-13TC Video Transport Controller 

 

Grounding the RC-13TC Video Transport 
Controller 

We recommend that you ground the 

RC-13TC

The grounding screw is used to earth the chassis of the unit to the building ground, 

preventing static electricity from impacting the performance of the unit. 

Figure 

 defines the grounding screw components.

Component Description 

M3x6 screw 

M3 Toothed Lock Washer 

M3 Ring Tongue Terminal 

 

Figure 7: Grounding 
Connection Components 

To ground the RC-13TC: 

1.  Connect the ring tongue terminal to the building grounding point wire (we 

recommend that you use a green-yellow AWG#18 (0.82mm2) wire, crimped 

with a proper hand-tool). 

2.  Insert the M3x6 screw through the toothed lock washers and the tongue 

terminal in the order shown above. 

3.  Insert the M3x6 screw (with the two toothed lock washers and ring tongue 

terminal) into the grounding screw hole and tighten the screw.
