Route cables through the four holes provided on the bottom of the case.

Knockouts are provided on the rear of the recorder case as an alternative means of cable entry. To
remove a knockout, place the back of the recorder on a firm, flat surface, open the door and inner
cover (see Fig. 7.3, page 68) and carefully remove the knockout by placing the blade of a small,
flat-bladed screwdriver into the knockout groove and tapping the screwdriver smartly with a hammer.
c
Use the indicated cable entry hole or knockout if the optional Ethernet module is fitted.
d
Connect the Ethernet cable, ensuring that if optional input modules are fitted in positions B and C,
the cable is routed between their terminal blocks as shown.
e
Connect cable screens only to the terminals indicated.
Note.
For wall- or pipe-mounting to IP66/NEMA4X standard, fit suitable cable glands. Blank off any
unused holes with the blanking plugs and retaining clips supplied with the recorder.
Optional cable glands are available and are suitable for use with cables Ø 5 to 9mm (0.20 to
0.35 in.). The alternative 2-hole cable gland inserts are suitable for use with cables Ø 5mm
(0.20 in.). The Ethernet cable gland is suitable for use with cable Ø 4.8 to 6.3mm (0.19 to
0.25 in.).
