4.
Making the Wiring Connections
You must wire the transmitter using the factory-supplied cable, which is available in a variety of lengths.
Note:
If you need to lengthen cables, refer to
below to splice an extension onto the existing cable. Be sure
to connect positive to positive and negative to negative.
Use the following steps to wire the transmitter to your system:
1.
Push the female connector end on the transmitter cable into the mating male connector on the transmitter
module. Make sure the pins are properly aligned. Then, secure the connectors together by sliding the metal
sleeve on the cable over the connectors and turning it clockwise until it is tight.
2.
Using the flying leads at the other end of the transmitter cable, connect the transmitter to your power supply and
data acquisition system (DAS), as shown in
. Refer to
below for a description of the
leads on the factory-supplied cable.
3.
Trim any unused leads back to the outer cable jacket, to remove the bare tinned wire and prevent accidental
short circuits.
The VeriDri is now ready for operation.
CAUTION!
Do not apply force on the transmitter module to tighten the unit into its fitting.
