2.5.1 How to fabricate the cables
For how to connect the WAGO connector, see "WAGO connector" on page 2-6.
TTYCYSLA-10 (for serial cable)

Before beginning any work on the Antenna Unit, turn off the breaker for the de-icer
at the mains switchboard. (Turning off the display unit has no effect.)
The neck of the Antenna Unit becomes VERY HOT when the de-icer is working.

55°C.)
Wrap the spiral tubing near the crimp-on lugs.
