ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS 

Model LCA-RTC (with removable terminal connectors) 

Revisions G and later: 

Terminal Connector J1 

(bottom of product label, sensor side) 

Terminal Connector J2 

(top of label, signal output & power side) 

 
 

 

 

 

Revision G was implemented in July 2017 for the LCA-RTC to change the green power 
connector from 3 pins to 2 pins, and to increase the pitch (or spacing) between the 
power connecter pins. In combination, these two changes minimize the chance of 
applying power to the wrong terminals, thereby damaging the unit. LCA-RTC cable 
assemblies built for Revision F or earlier units cannot be used with Revision G or later 
units. 

Revisions earlier than G: 

Terminal Connector J1 

(bottom of product label, sensor side) 

Terminal Connector J2 

(top of label, signal output & power side) 

 

 

 

WARNING:

 If input power (green connector) is plugged into the black terminal 

(jacks 1, 2, 3), damage will occur to the device.
