Mechanical shock may open or close latching relays on the scanner card. Before enabling
any external sources, open all relays by inserting the 2000-SCAN into the multimeter and
turning on the power.
To wire the circuitry to the screw terminals on the scanner card:
1. To access the connectors, open the plastic shield.
2. Strip approximately 7.93 mm (5/16 in.) of insulation from the end of each wire.
3. Twist the strands of the wire together.
#22 AWG stranded wire is recommended for scanner card connections.
4. Loosen the screw terminal.
5. Insert the wire into the access hole.
6. While holding the wire in place, tighten the connector screw securely.
7. Repeat the above steps until all wires are connected.
8. Dress input wires through the cable clamp.
Dressing leads
After the wires are connected to the terminal blocks, they should be dressed through the cable clamp
as shown in the figure below. Unlatch the clip that holds the cable clamp together, then route all wires
flat against the lower half of the clamp. Clamp the wires down, then secure the clamp with the
unlatched metal clip.
