Note
For greatest calibration accuracy, use separate wires between the bridge and the
SCA terminals as shown in Figure 5.
Connecting the Signals
Complete the following steps to connect the signals wires to the
RJ-50 (10p10c) modular plug:
1.
Determine the number of signals used in your application. You can use
a maximum of 10 signal wires per RJ-50 (10p10c) modular plug.
2.
Choose the shielded twisted pair (up to 5 pair, 10 conductor) cable for
your application. The recommended twisted pairs are as follows:
•
(AI +/AI –)
•
(RS +/RS –)
•
(EX +/EX –)
•
(T +/T –)
•
(SCA/SCA)
3.
Expose 12.7 to 15.9 mm (0.500 to 0.625 in.) of signal wires without
stripping the insulation as shown in Figure 6. Do not strip the
insulation from the exposed signal wires.

4.
Determine the color coding of the signal wires for your application.
5.
Untwist and flatten the wires into the correct color order for your
application. Maintain the twist in the wire as close as possible to the
RJ-50 modular plug while allowing enough room to insert the wires
into the plug.
