Installing cable on rigid fences
The technique used to install sensor cable on rigid fences depends on the type, and brand, of
fence. In some instances, cable ties are used to attach the sensor cable. Some manufacturers
offer cable clamps that are specific to their fence type (see Figure 32:
). Service loops, sensitivity
loops and zone demarcation loops are not recommended on rigid fence types. Refer to application
note G6DA0309-001 (Using FlexZone on palisade fences) if you are considering installing the
FlexZone sensor on a rigid fence type.
Sensor cable connections
There are three FlexZone sensor cable connections: processor connections, splices and
terminations. The sensor cable to processor connections are made on removable terminal blocks,
which plug into connectors on the processor. Splice and termination connections are made on
terminal blocks that are mounted on small circuit card assemblies (CCA).

TIP Follow the silk screening when connecting the sensor cable to the CCA.
Note If there is excess sensor cable at the location of a cable splice or
termination, you can coil up to 10 m of sensor cable and attach it to the
fence. Then cut the cable to the proper length for the connection.
