3. Cable between Sensor and Indicator 

1)  Cable of 7 wires of at least 0.75 mm

2

 is usable for maximum 2 km in length for one-indicator, 1 km 

for two-indicators. 

2)  If induction by radio waves occurs, use shielded cable and earth end of the shield (E3). 

3)  Set  the  units  and  the  cable  away  from  powerful  transmitting  antennas  as  well  as  high-voltage  and 

large-current circuits. 

4)  Cable  may  be  affected  by  lightning  as  the  distance  is  extended,  so  cable  should  ideally  be  placed 

underground.  Units  have  a  small-capacity  lightning  arrester,  but  in  areas  subjected  to  frequent 

lightning, may require a separate lightning arrester on the input line. 

 

4. Wiring the Sensor Unit 

1)  Connect cable according to the wiring drawing. 

2)  Open the lid of the terminal box at the lower part of the sensor unit. 

3)  Lead a line through the ground (cable penetration piece) into the terminal box. 

4)  After connection, secure the clamp screw by turning it clockwise. This tightened screw clamps the 

cable by compression of the rubber packing to seal the space against rain water. If a thin cable leaves 

spaces, pack the spaces with putty or similar material to keep out water. 

 

5. Installing the Indicator 

Select an installation location for this unit that satisfies the following conditions. 

1)  A place

 

with less vibration, corrosive gas, dust, salt, and etc. 

2)  A place not exposed to direct sunlight or high temperature (desirable at -10 to +50

3)  A place with the humidity of 40 to 85%RH. No condensation. 

4)  A place not affected by magnetic fields 

 

6. Wiring the Indicator 

Wire cable to the terminals on the inside of this unit, referring to the wiring drawing attached at the 

end of this manual. 

 

7. Starting Operation 

1) Check that the cable is connected correctly. 

2) Turn on the power switch and wind speed switch.
