5. Remove plug button taped to inside of Control Box
and insert it into hole on front panel of the Wire
Drive.
MOUNTING THE CONTROL BOX (BOOM
OR SEPARATED BENCH MODELS)
The back plate of the Control Box has four keyhole
slots for mounting. See Figure A.2 for the size and
location of these slots. #10 screws are recommended
for mounting.
FIGURE A.2
DETERMINING RECEPTACLE CONFIGURATION
The components in a Power Wave / Power Feed sys-
tem are connected in a ʻdaisy chainedʼ fashion. This
means that the first component in the system (always
the Power Wave 455) must have an output recepta-
cle. The last component in the system (typically the
Wire Drive) must have an input receptacle. Every
component in between must have both an input and
output receptacle. (Output receptacles are character-
ized by having insulated ʻsocketʼ connections, while
input receptacles have uninsulated ʻpinʼ connections.)
In a factory supplied bench system, the Power Wave
455 has an output receptacle, and the Wire Drive has
an input receptacle. The connection between the
Control Box and the Wire Drive is internal; no external
cables or receptacles are required.
In a factory supplied boom system, the Power Wave
455 has an output receptacle, the Control Box has
both input and output receptacles, and the Wire Drive
has an input receptacle.
If a bench feeder is to be converted to a typical boom
feeder, both input and output receptacles must be
installed in the Control Box. An Input/Output
Receptacle Kit, K1548-1, is available for this purpose.
Instructions for installing the receptacles in a Control
Box are included with the kit.
Alternately, a bench feeder can be converted to a
non-typical boom system by installing an output
receptacle in a Wire Drive (use K1549-1) and an input
receptacle in a Control Box (use K1550-1). This sys-
tem would meet the rule stated above: This means
that the first component in the system (the Power
Wave 455) has an output receptacle. The last compo-
nent in the system (the Control Box) has an input
receptacle. The component in between (the Wire
Drive) has both an input and output receptacle.
A Control Box can be mounted to the front of a Power
Wave 455. When mounting a Control Box removed
from a bench feeder, no receptacles are required; all
connections are internal. When mounting a Control
Box configured as part of a boom system (both input
and output receptacles are already installed in the
Control Box) the receptacles do not get used. The
wiring harness from either J1 or J2 (the signals are
identical) must be disconnected from the harness on
the back of one of the receptacles (internally). This
open connector is then used during mounting to the
Power Wave 455.
MOUNTING ON POWER SOURCE
Complete instructions for mounting a Control Box to
the front of a Power Wave 455 are included in the
Power Wave 455 Operatorʼs manual.
CONTROL CABLE
CONTROL CABLE CONNECTIONS
• All system control cables are the same.
• All control cables can be connected end to end to
extend their length.
• All system equipment must be connected to a con-
trol cable.
The Power Wave / Power Feed Wire Feeders offer
flexibility in the connection of system components.
This system uses the same type of control cable
between all of the system components. Connections
can be “daisy chained” from one system component to
another. Components can be connected in any order,
as long as the proper input and output receptacles are
present. See MOUNTING CONTROL BOX AND
RECEPTACLE CONFIGURATION for details.
NOTE:
The maximum cable length between any two
pieces of equipment is 250 Ft.(76.2m).
