5.2 Connection and wiring of the connector for I/O interface
Wire the connector for I/O Interface according to the following procedure:
(1) Verify that the plug cover is installed in the plug unit.
Caution: Do not push the plug cover into the plug unit before the cable is
inserted.
Once a plug is pressure-displaced, it can no longer be reused.
(2) Insert the cable until it makes contact with the plug unit.
Point
y
When inserting the cable, confirm that it has been inserted completely.
If the cable is not inserted completely, it may cause contact failures.
y
If the cross section of the cable is not round, the cable cannot be inserted
smoothly. Cut the cable tip using pliers, etc., and make it as round as
possible, then insert it.
y
When inserting the cable, the cable may stick out from the front of the cover.
In such a case, pull the cable backward so that the tip of the cable stays within
the plug cover.
(3) Using a pliers or special tool, push the plug cover into the plug unit, and
pressure-displace it. After performing pressure displacement, verify that
the plug cover is securely attached to the plug unit, as shown in the
figure at right.
Point
While performing pressure displacement, the plug cover may rise because it is
not latched against the plug unit correctly. This condition indicates that
pressure displacement is incomplete. Push the plug cover until it is securely
installed in the plug unit.
