4.6.2 Installation Procedure
Follow these steps to install a port lightning arrester:
1) Use a double-faced adhesive tape to stick the port lightning arrester to the firewall.
The port lightning arrester should be as close to the grounding screw as possible.
2) Cut short the grounding cable of the port lightning arrester according to its
distance to the grounding screw. Then, fix the grounding cable onto the grounding
screw of the firewall.
3) Use the multimeter to check the connection between the grounding cable of the
port lightning arrester and the grounding screw of the firewall.
4) Follow the instructions to connect the port lightning arrester with a transit cable.
Note that the external cable should be connected to the IN end while the transit
cable should be connected to the OUT end. Check whether the board LEDs are
normal.
Note:
Read the instructions carefully before installing the port lightning arrester.
5) Bundle the cables with cable ties neatly.
