Figure 4 - Scanner using Junction Box
For Junction Box connections, the scanner has a cable that terminates in a 24-pin
connector that plugs into the junction box. The system cables pass through 6 glands
in the side of the Junction Box and the individual wires connect to spring clamp
terminal blocks inside which provide access to all scanner signals.
