MRP and RIP Connections
When wiring to Euroblocks, a minimum wire gauge of 22
is preferred for reliability. If the ground or shield wire is left
shorter, it acts as a strain relief for the other wires. Cable with
a flexible jacket is easier to use and less likely to damage the
connections. Avoid stripping excess insulation. Inspect wires for
nicks that may lead to wire breakage. Fully insert each wire in
the appropriate socket and tighten the screw. Turn the power to
the unit
off
until all connections are made.
Wire Types
Variations in wire type do not greatly affect the performance
of the remote controls. However, 22-gauge stranded wire with
a flexible jacket is recommended. You may use 5- conductor
unshielded remote control signal cable for shorter runs (less than
200 ft.) or 4-conductor (2 pair) shielded remote control signal
cable (use the shield as the GND return) for longer runs (200 to
1000 ft.). The type of wire required is influenced by your instal-
lation and local electrical codes. Rane Corporation does
not
pro-
vide or source cable. Please contact your local retail or wholesale
outlet,
not
the factory.
