4. Installation
For correct operation the SDM-IO16 must be installed where there is no risk of
water ingress or condensation.
The order in which connections are made is critical.
Always connect 12 V first, followed by ground, then the
control ports.
CAUTION
The CABLE5CBL-L or a similar cable connects the datalogger to the
SDM-IO16. For datalogger connections, see Table 1, below. Please refer to
Figure 4 for details of how to use the spring-loaded terminals.
