2.0 Installation
2.2 Connecting the Remote Cable
The ME-ARC comes with a remote cable to enable communication between the
inverter and the remote. The remote cable is a 50-foot, 4-conductor, round,
telephony standard with 6P4C (6-position/4-conductor) connectors on each
end. When the 6P4C connectors are held side by side with both of the connec-
tor tabs facing the same way, the color of the conductors in each connector
is the opposite from top to bottom (as shown in Figure 2-1).
Note:
The remote cable can be extended up to a length of 200 feet without
data degradation.

2.2.1 Connecting the ME-ARC to a Magnum Inverter
One end of the remote cable plugs into the back side of the ME-ARC, and the
other plugs into the REMOTE (blue) port on the Magnum inverter/charger
(see Figure 2-2).
Note:
Do not connect the remote cable at this time. First, locate and prepare
an area to mount the remote (follow directions in Section 2.4).
