Connecting the Sensor and Receiver Cables
1. Connect the current and voltage cables to the sensor (
).
Torque the SMA connectors to 4.5 in-lb (0.5 Nm).
Note:
The SMA connector on the current sensor cable has a standard center conductor and the SMA
connector on the voltage sensor cable has a reverse polarity center conductor.
2. Connect the temperature/data cable to the sensor.
3. Connect the current and voltage data cables to the receiver (
).
Torque the SMA connectors to 4.5 in-lb (0.5 Nm).
4. Connect the temperature / data cable to the receiver.
5. Connect receiver to external communications/control system.
a. If required, connect Ethernet cable to receiver’s Ethernet port (rear panel).
b. If required, connect cable to RS-232 connector (front panel), see
"RS-232 Serial Control" on page 78
for information about RS-232 setup/control.
6. Connect the power supply to the power connector.
7. Apply power to the receiver (rear panel power switch) and verify that the LEDs on the receiver light. See
for a description of the Status LEDs operation. See
"Connectors, Controls and Indicators"
for a description of all of the receiver’s LED indicators.
