Components:

 

A -  AirBrain

B - Rubber Boot

C - Quick Link

D - RJ45 Jack

E - Safety Cable (Wrapped around

      Quick Link)

3.1.2:

 Once removed, locate the RJ45 jack and the input power terminals (refer to pages 31 and 32 

for illustrations showing placement). For analog remote wiring, refer to page 33. The power cable 

or wires, shielded CAT5e remote cable, and steel braided safety cable are to be routed through 

the center of the motor, drop length, and mount. The power cable or wires and shielded CAT5e 

remote cable can be routed up from the bottom together with the safety cable or down from the 

mount but the safety cable needs to be routed up from the bottom with the swaged end at the 

bottom. Secure this end to the triangle quick link that is attached to the rubber boot in the center 

of the drive / heat sink. Remove the slack in the safety cable by pulling the cable up slightly (refer 

to illustration above for reference). Use the provided ring terminal kit to terminate the ends of the 

power cable or wires and refer to NEC and local codes to ensure compliance.

3.1.3: 

Re-attach the bottom cover.
