Wire Connections 

2.5.1  Spring Cage Terminals 

 

With the exception of Ethernet and USB, all wires are connected to spring cage terminals. 
These terminals are easy to use and work with both solid and stranded wires. 
 
Instructions 
 
1. 

Strip wire lead approximately 9 mm. 

2. 

Push screwdriver down to release spring cage. 

3. 

Insert wire into terminal. 

4. 

Remove screwdriver to clamp wire. 

5. 

Gently pull installed wire to make sure connection is reliable.

Table 1 Wire connection overview 

2.5.2  Ethernet and USB 

Ethernet connections are made with standard RJ45 connectors. Make sure to pass the Ethernet cable 
through the cable gland before crimping the connector to the cable. 
 
USB  is  intended  for  service  and  maintenance  and  is  therefore  connected  only  when  the  lid  is  open. 
Connection is done using a standard USB type B cable.
