Wire the Enwatch Unit

For optimum performance, use shielded cables for all connections to the Enwatch
unit. For sensors such as accelerometers, connect the screens on the cables to
chassis ground at only one point. The optimal place for this is inside the Enwatch
enclosure and eight ground terminals are provided for this purpose. Connect the
screen at only one end; do not connect to ground at both ends.

Analog Input Configuration

Each channel (16 total) has a 3-way header associated with it. These are labeled
with the channel number and ‘A’ or ‘B’. The three jumper options and couplings
are the following.
