Make Cable Connections 3-11

2. Close the hinged assembly, applying pressure until the latch locks into

place.

3. Make sure the cable is straight before moving on to step four.

4. Tighten down the two screws at the center points of the hinge and latch

sides of the base; tighten down the latch side first.

5. Mount the base to the panel by driving screws through the corner holes

not containing the metal inserts.

IMPORTANT

The latch has two catches. The first catch loosely holds the
connector on the cable. The second catch needs more
pressure applied to close the connector tightly. If the cable
is not in the correct position, the connector will not close.

ATTENTION

You must make sure the cable is straight before tightening
the screws. Improper seating of the cable may cause a weak
seal and impede IP67 requirements. A mis-aligned cable
may also cause shorts due to the mis-registration of the
IDC contacts.

IMPORTANT

Take care to avoid stripping the screws. Ample torque
should be 5.56 N (15 in-lbs).
