NOTICE
Leaving the product connectors uncoded results
in lack of interchanging protection. All connectors
will be identically encoded.
 Create connector coding plan prior to first
mating and encode connectors accordingly.
 Perform encoding procedure for each new
module.
The product housing is equipped with an automatic
encoding.
This connector interchanging protection is initially
encoded upon shipping and can be individually
adjusted.

connector clockwise.
