SCXI-1314 Parts Locator Diagram
1.
Unscrew the top cover screws and remove the top cover.
2.
Loosen the strain-relief screws and remove the strain-relief bar.
3.
Run the signal wires through the strain-relief opening. You can add
insulation or padding if necessary.
4.
Prepare your signal wire by stripping the insulation no more than
7 mm.
5.
Connect the signal wires to the screw terminals by inserting the
stripped end of the wire fully into the terminal. No bare wire should
extend past the screw terminal. Exposed wire increases the risk of a
short circuit that can cause circuit failure.
When connecting your signals to the SCXI-1314, follow the labeling
on the SCXI-1314, as indicated in Figure 2.
