RealVision™ 3D transducer cable:
attaching the locking collar
Attaching the connector locking collar
The supplied cable is provided with a separate locking collar
assembly, ensuring that the cable connection is secure.
This procedure describes how to attach the locking collar to
the cable connector. The locking collar parts are supplied in a
separate bag, in the package with your product.
Important:
Ensure that you route the cable all the way to its
destination
before
attaching the locking collar.
1. Slide the locking collar over the end of the connector, then
push it towards the cable-end of the connector.
Important:
Ensure that the lugs on the locking collar (labelled ‘A’
in the illustration), are closest to the plug-end of the connector.
2. Slide the split-ring over the end of the connector, then push it
towards the cable-end of the connector.
Important:
Ensure that the tabs on the split-ring (labelled ‘B’ in
the illustration), are closest to the cable-end of the connector.
The split-ring slides easily for approximately 1 cm onto the
connector, before butting up against the connector moulding.
3. Carefully insert the pointed end of the supplied tool into the
split-ring’s gap (labelled ‘C’ in the illustration).
The tool widens the gap in the split ring, enabling the split ring
to be pushed further back onto the connector in the following
step.
Important:
Always use the supplied tool when attaching the
split ring. The split ring may become overstretched and break if
you try to attach it without using the tool.
4. Use the tool to gently lever the split ring over the moulding on
the connector until it snaps into position approximately 0.5 cm
further back towards the cable-end of the connector.
You can now remove the tool. The split-ring stays in position
on the connector, but rotates freely.
5. Slide the O-ring (arrowed) over the end of the connector,
and ensure that it is seated squarely against the connector
moulding, adjacent to the split-ring.
