The transmitter is connected to the receiver by
way of a fiber optic cable assembly. This cable
comes in standard lengths with the fiber
connectors already attached.

regular copper wire! The fiber cable can be
damaged if it is bent too sharply. Please
observe the minimum bend radius specifi-

Install the fiber optic cable as follows:
1. Install a retaining nut on one end of the fiber
cable assembly. Push it on such that about 2” of
the connector end of the cable protrudes through
the connector.
2. Push the connector end of the cable into the
transmitter fiber receptacle until it bottoms.
3. Slide the retaining nut up to the transmitter
receptacle and tighten until it is snug.
4. Route the fiber cable to the receiver. Secure it
as necessary to prevent unwanted movement
after installation. Be careful to observe the min-
imum bend radius specification.
5. It is likely that the standard cable lengths will
leave some cable left over. Plan a location where
this extra cable can be coiled and stored. When
coiling the cable be careful to observe the minimum
bend radius specification.
6. At the receiver install a retaining nut on the
cable and connect the cable to the receiver in the
same manner as the transmitter.
