Wiring I/O Connections

To wire your P1, P4, and P5 connectors:

1. Prepare your I/O wires by stripping approximately 12.7 mm (0.5

in.) of insulation from the end.

2. Use a small blade type screw driver and depress the spring clamp

next to the pin you will wire and insert the wire, as shown in
Figure 3.10 and Figure 3.11. The P4 and P5 wire terminations are
designed for stripped AWG 22 to AWG 14 wire.

3. Remove the screw driver and gently pull on the wire to make sure

it does not come out of its terminal. Re-insert and test any loose
wires.

IMPORTANT

Use caution not to nick, cut, or otherwise
damage strands as you remove the insulation.
