Obtain the following items to perform the installation:

Ratchet set with 11-millimeter (7/16-in) socket

Pointed shovel

Claw hammer

Minimum 13-millimeter (½-in) diameter masonry bit at least
305 millimeters (12 in) in length to drill through the manhole

Installing the Communication Cable

After finalizing the cable route, run the communication cable (p/n
106227) between the monitor location and the EMU/power source
location in the following way:

Note: The following instructions represent a
communication cable installation that occurs from the
EMU/power source location to the manhole through soil.
If a transition occurs through asphalt or concrete, you must
create a 13-millimeter (½-in) wide by 25-millimeter (1-in)
deep (minimum) saw cut trench. The trench and cable
must be clean and free of dirt, debris, and grease before
you lay the communication cable. Use only approved loop
sealant or concrete joint sealant to secure the cable into the
roadway. To prevent wear or damage to the
communication cable, avoid sharp transitions where the
concrete or asphalt transitions to other surfaces.

1. Remove the orange connector from the communication cable

end (if attached) and inspect the ends of each small wire
extending from the cable.
