☐ Conductive adhesive foil
Procedure:
1. Dismantle the data cables by 100 mm.
2. Fold the surplus cable shield of the data cables back over the
cable sheath.
3. Wrap the cable shield in conductive adhesive foil.
Connecting the Data Cables to the Connectors
Pin assignment in the connector
Procedure:
1. Strip off the insulated conductors of the data cables by 10 mm.
2. Remove the connectors from the customer terminals -X712 and -X713.
