Light Sensor
1. Pull the Belden 8471 (or equivalent) and 2.5mm2(14AWG) ) ground
wire to the mounting location and strip each wire to the appropriate
length. The strip length is dependent on the wire nut or other
termination connector used (wire nuts are not provided).
2. If you are installing the sensor in series with other sensors or
stations (continuing the data run), use the provided EchoConnect and
ESDground wire pigtails. Termination connectors are not provided. If
you are not continuing the data run, direct termination to the
sensor controller is recommended, skip this step and proceed to
step3.
a. Strip each wire to the appropriate length, depending on the wire
nut or other termination used (wire nuts are not provided).
b. Twist the incoming data-EchoConnect wire(typically black) and
the data-wire(black) from the EchoConnect pigtail as well as any
continuing data-EchoConnect wire together and secure with a
wire nut.
c. Repeat the above step for the data+EchoConnect wire(typically
white) and for the ESD ground wire (typically green/yellow), using
a new wire nut for each termination type.
3. If you are installing the primary and/or optional second Sensor head
external from the controller, see
Install Sensor Heads Remotely
(optional) on the facing page
and then return to these instructions. If
you are not installing Sensor heads remotely, proceed with this
instruction.
Note:
All sensor wires must terminate directly to the terminals at the
controller.
4. Prepare the ceiling tile.
a. Align the flat side of the sensor mounting plate to the finished
side of the ceiling tile and mark the center access hole for wire
pass-through.
b. Remove the ceiling tile material from marked access hole.
c. Pull all incomming wires through the access holes to the finished
side of the ceiling tile.
5. Secure the sensor mounting plate in place.
a. Insert the soft ceiling tile adapter through the pinholes on the
mounting plate.
b. Push the adapter through the ceiling tile, and then bend each
tine over in opposite directions for a secure fit.
