Service Loop 1
Determine Cable Service Loop and Route Cables with Cable Sleeves
Identify all cables that need to route through the Arm to the Channel
and ensure they are long enough. Connect all cables to the device and
organize cables so cables on the left side of the device route to the left
side anchor points and cables from the right side of the device route to
the anchor points on right side of the arm. Two Cable Sleeves are
included
– they are 30.5” (77.5cm) in length and determine the correct
service loop for the cables from the front cable anchor point to the rear
cable anchor point (Service Loop 2).
Insert cables into Cable Sleeves (see diagram below). Determine the
service loop needed for the cables from their connections on the device
to the front anchor points (Service Loop 1)
– do this by tilting the device
all the way forward and being sure there is adequate length to avoid
damage to a connector or unintended disconnection of a cable.
Insert
cables into sleeve
Cable Sleeve must have a 1/4 rotation overlap minimum.
CAUTION:
Cable sleeve material other than that supplied with the arm (or equivalent) should not be used
without verification of function by GCX.
Once Service Loop 1 to the front anchor points is determined, adjust the
Cable Sleeve and secure cable bundle to Cable Anchor with cable tie
1/2” (13mm) from the end of the Cable Sleeve. Before securing the
cable tie, ensure the service loop to the device is still correct, then
secure cables by pulling on the cable tie until the cable bundle does not
move. Position the female receptacle of cable tie against the Arm before
tightening. Use of pliers may assist in providing enough cable tie tension
on the cable bundle. Clip excess length of the cable tie as flush as
possible to avoid creation of a sharp edge.
