2.5 Cable Connections
With the control module and ram sensor installed, connect the cables as shown in Figure 3. The sensor cable
should be looped behind the press to avoid interfering with the press guard door.
NOTE
: Use care when connecting the sensor cable. The SMA terminals are fragile and easily damaged.
The foot switch interface cable is used if the crimp force monitor is to inhibit the foot switch during a fault. One
end of the cable connects to the back of the press, one end connects to the foot switch plug, and the last end
connects to the DB9 I/O receptacle on the back of the control module.
The mini-USB cable is used to connect the crimp force monitor to a PC for data logging. See TM-638007958 for
installing the ForceView software on a PC.
2.6 Power Supply Connection
The power supply accepts a range of input AC voltage
and can be changed depending on the AC receptacle
available. To change the style of plug, move the tab on
the back of the AC adapter in the direction of the arrow
and remove the plug. The new plug is installed in the
reverse order. See Figure 4.
