ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
Earth connection
Connector type: M5 bolt
• An earth wire of at least 6mm
2
must be attached via a crimp on ring terminal to the dedicated
M5 earth bolt on the case of the gauge.
• Do not rely on the mounting bolts to provide a reliable earth path.
• If a height stand is used then it must also be earthed via its own dedicated earth wire.
• All earth wires should be kept as short as practical.
Shielded Cables
• Use shielded cable for all signal connections.
• Ensure that all cable shields are correctly clamped and electrically connected to their
connectors and metal connector shells at both ends.
• Ensure that the shields of cables connecting to the end user’s equipment are clamped to
earth at their destination.
Optional CDI4 interface display unit installation
The CDI4 interface display unit is a recommended optional accessory with the following features:
• Menu based user interface for configuring the gauge and displaying measurements and error
messages.
• Two versions of the CDI4 interface display are available: one version that mounts directly on
the gauge body and one version that can be connected remotely via a CAN-bus extension
cable.
• The remote CDI4 interface display unit can also power DC powered gauges through a CAN-
bus port connected power supply.
