• Connect the transmitter cable (having the grey shield) to the transmitter cable connecter as shown below.
Similarly, connect the receiver cable (having the Black cable shield) to the receiver cable connector.
(Recommended tightening torque is 0.5N•m) Use two screws to secure the cable connector.
When bending the cable, the radius of the bend must be 5mm (0.2") or more.

2-3-2 Fixing the Mounting Brackets
WARNING
The installation holes for screws on mounting brackets for the SL-C are slot-
shaped so that they are larger than the actual screw size with which they are
intended to be used. This additional space can be used to adjust the position in
which the device is installed. For this reason, the proper installation of the device
should be verified according to the procedure outlined in “4-1 Maintenance (
➮ page
4-3)” in the event that maintenance requires the removal of the device from its
target equipment or the adjustment of its installation position after its initial installa-
tion onto that target equipment. Failure to follow these installation procedures may
result in significant harm to machine operators, including serious injury or death.
This section explains how to attach the SL-C mounting brackets.
