Installing And Wiring Your Module 2-9
Preparing and Wiring the Cables
To prepare and connect cable leads and drain wires, follow these
steps:
1. At each end of the cable, strip some casing to expose individual
wires.
2. Trim signal wires to 5-inch lengths beyond the cable casing.
Strip about 3/16 inch (4.76 mm) of insulation to expose the ends
of the wires.
3. At the module end of the cables:
• extract the drain wire and signal wires
• remove the foil shield
• bundle the input cables with a cable strap
4. Connect pairs of drain wires together:
• Channels 0 and 1
• Channels 2 and 3
• Channels 4 and 5
• Channels 6 and 7
Keep drain wires as short as possible.
5. Connect the drain wires to the shield inputs of the terminal
block if appropriate for thermocouple used.
• Channel 0 and 1 drain wires to pin 5
• Channel 2 and 3 drain wires to pin 10
• Channel 4 and 5 drain wires to pin 15
• Channel 6 and 7 drain wires to pin 20
