c. thread the cable through the bushings or tube.
Make sure that the exposed portion of the sensor cable that is beyond
the mast will not be blown about by the wind. Use insulated eye bolt
standoffs or other fasteners if necessary. (See Section 4 for information
on mounting options)
Note: If the standard 50 ft. cable provided with the sensor transmitter is
not long enough, it may be extended by splicing on an appropriate length
of 22-gauge, stranded, five conductor shielded cable with the same color
code. When cutting and splicing, insure good contacts, proper color
coding of the terminal leads, and a good seal. (A good solder splice, and
water proof insulation are essential; merely twisting the respective wires
together is not adequate.) Additional cable (Catalog No. 81545) and a
water tight splice kit (Cat. No. 81580) are available from the factory.
Once the sensor transmitter has been placed, route the cable back to the
Interface Module. Extra cable may be coiled up and placed behind the
Control Module.
