The cable attached to the clip-on gage can be from 660–1525 mm
(22–60 in) long. An extension cable or an adaptor cable may be
needed to reach the controller.
1. Attach the plastic connector holder, provided with the clip-on gage,
to the load unit column.
2. Connect the connector, attached to the cable extending from the
clip-on gage, to the mating connector on the appropriate system
cable.
Note
An adapter cable (MTS part number 039-704-601) is available
which allows connection between the PT connector on the clip-
on gage cable and an Amphenol connector on an existing
system cable.
3. Mount the connector assembly in the plastic connector holder.
