Installing Cables

Exercise care when connecting cables. Ensure that you are using the correct
cables and that all connections are secure. When you are finished, double-check
to ensure that all components are connected properly.

Turn the power off before connecting cables.

Connecting cables with power applied can cause damage to the equipment.

Controller Connectors

J1 USB

This is a standard USB 2.0 connector that accepts a USB-B cable connector and
connects to the computer. This provides a communications interface between
TestWorks on the PC and the controller. This is used to allow TestWorks, or other
software, to change settings in the controller. It also allows TestWorks to receive
data from the controller.
