Captive Screw
Connecting
IR captive screw connector is an added feature on the HDWP-IR. The Captive screw connector allows you to
cut cables down to a suitable length, reducing cable clutter, and provides a more reliable connection.
The captive screw connectors have a contact bar that is moved to compress the wire to the top contact
plate. Use the screws at the top of the connector to compress the wire against the contact plate.
When connecting the cables to the female captive screw connector it is important that the wires be
terminated correctly. The female captive screw connector (see picture A) has a contact plate at the top and
must have the wires touching it for signal to pass. When wired correctly (see picture B) the signal will pass,
incorrectly (see picture C) no signal will pass.
For your convenience the cables do not come pre-terminated. Each item, whether it’s an IR receiver (picture
1) or IR emitter (picture 2), will have wires exposed. Each wire is encased in a different colored cover. Female
captive screw connectors are included: IR (see picture 3).
IR pin outs have been included for the included IR emitter and IR receiver (see picture 6 & 7). The wires are
colored for each pin (see picture 8 and 9). *IR used with HDTX-IR and HDRX-IR only*
