Both pole-mounted and surface-mounted Adept Validators use the same rear connectors with the same pinouts.
In most installations only one connector (26WAY) is required to be terminated onto the cable. The second
connector (20WAY) and the third connector (GPS) will be required only if external GPIO/USB/RS485/GPS etc. are
required in the installation.
The following defines the mating connectors/crimps and tooling requirements used on the cable harness that
connects to the Adept Validator.
• Refer to the below two tables for the recommended connectors and crimps. The crimps should be selected
based on the connecting cable size and the current rating requirement.
• Approved alternative connectors, that are compatible with the defined interfaces, can be used.
• Defined tools should be used to ensure good termination coupling in both the cable manufacture and
installation.
