3. Strip 10 cm (4 in.) of outer cable jacket. Trim the power wires so that you are left with 7 cm
(2¾ in.) of power wires and 10 cm of data wires.
4. Strip approximately 12 mm (1/2 inch) of insulation from the end of each power and data wire.
Crimp a ferrule onto the end of each wire. The ferrules must be long enough to pass fully into the
terminals without leaving any exposed metal outside the terminals.
5. Fasten the power wires in the PD cable into the
spring-loaded power terminals inside the
connections compartment as follows:
a) See illustration on right. Unscrew and remove
the detachable mains power terminal block C
from its base.
b) Fasten the yellow/green wire into the terminal
marked
(ground / earth).
c) Fasten the blue wire into the terminal marked
N (neutral).
d) Fasten the brown wire into the terminal
marked L (live).
e) If you are going to connect a THRU PD cable, go to the next step below. Otherwise, re-insert
the detachable mains power terminal block into its base and fasten it in place with its two
screws.
6. Fasten the data wires in the PD cable into the spring-loaded data terminals as follows:
a) See illustration above. Unscrew and remove the detachable data terminal block D from its
base.
a) Fasten the red wire into the terminal marked Data +.
b) Fasten the grey wire into the terminal marked Data –.
c) Fasten the bare copper braided shield into the terminal marked DMX common.
7. If you are going to connect a PD THRU cable, go to the next section. Otherwise, re-insert the
detachable data terminal block into its base and fasten it in place with its two screws and tighten
compression nut A in the input cable gland.
8. If you have finished making connections, re-install the connections compartment cover, checking
that the seal in the back of the fixture is clean, dry and in perfect condition. Check that all
installation work is completed and carry out appropriate tests and safety checks before applying
power.
