Appendix on cable extension / replacement
When opting for cable extension or cable replacement please note the voltage drop in
cabling. In case of cables longer than 5 metres, consult Hukseflux. See the specific
paragraph in this manual about power supply and cable length.
The cable of VU01 is equipped with a M16 straight connector. In case of cable
replacement, it is recommended to purchase a new cable with cable connector at
Hukseflux. An alternative is to choose a Do-It-Yourself (DIY) approach; please ask for the
DIY connector assembly guide. In case of cable extension, the user may choose between
purchasing a new cable with cable connector at Hukseflux or extending the existing cable
himself. Please note that Hukseflux does not provide support for DIY connector- and
cable assembly.
Cables act as a source of distortion by picking up capacitive noise. Keep the distance
between VU01 and power supply as short as possible.
VU01 connector, cable and cable connection specifications are summarised below.
