Manual Part No: MAN-S-ADAPT-X5-10
Doc No: 11887-A
Knock Out Secondary Cable Access Opening:
1.
If the U30 is powered, disconnect power source.
2.
If the cable channel for the existing (primary) cable
access opening is installed, disconnect all cables (e.g.,
solar panel, Smart Sensors), unscrew the two retaining
bars and remove channel and cables from the unit.
3.
Use a hammer and a bladed tool (e.g., screwdriver,
chisel) to punch through at the four corners and at the
ends of the secondary cable access opening knockout.
4.
Punch through along the bottom of the knockout and
then tap sharply in the middle to break into the opening.
Remove the hanging ‘flap’ of material.
5.
Peel away any residual material. File any rough edges.
Install Smart Sensor Expander:
6.
Insert one of the two supplied self-tapping screws into
each end of the expander, lower onto the two standoffs
near the bottom of the U30 case, and screw into place.
Note:
The contacts of the expander jacks should be
nearest to the bottom of case as shown.
Be careful
not
to trap the battery cable behind the expander.
Install Expander Cable:
7.
Plug one end of the supplied expander cable into the
rightmost jack of the expander and the other end into the
rightmost jack of the U30 module as shown.
Install Cables and Cable Channel:
8.
Insert the cables of any Smart Sensors that will be
connected to the expander through the knocked out
opening and plug them into the expander. Up to six
cables can be connected to the expander.
9.
Apply a small amount (about the size of a pea) of the
supplied silicone grease onto
your fingertip and work a light
coating into the top, bottom,
and two ends of the channel.
Do not grease the sides with
the holes.
