3. With the center pin in place, use the crimp tool to crimp the pin into
place, noting the following guidelines.
•
The smaller hexagonal crimping notch is for crimping the center pin
onto the center conductor.
•
Check for any braid strands that could cause a short to the
center conductor.
4. Slide the ControlNet connector body onto the cable, noting the
illustration that shows the braid and tape shields and connector base.
5. Slide the crimp ferrule over the three outer shields and connector base
until it meets the shoulder on the connector.
6. Using the crimp tool, crimp the ferrule. The large hexagon opening is
used for this crimp.
IMPORTANT
Be sure the center pin slips onto the center conductor
completely. The back shoulder of the center pin should be up
against the white insulation. If it is not, recheck the length of
the center conductor.
