can determine whether the components work together in the way you want. You thus avoid having
to dismantle the components later.
To test the system, proceed as follows:
➤ Lay out the individual devices.
➤ Connect the devices as described in the following chapter, but without securing the cables.
➤ If necessary, connect the control cables.
➤ Switch the system on.
➤ Check to see whether the components are working together as desired.
✓ If the system is working to your satisfaction, you can secure the devices and cables.

NOTICE!
• Ensure that all lines are connected correctly. The control line may never be
connected to earth; doing so can damage the device. Make especially sure to
insulate the bare end of the control line when it is not in use and thus not connected.
• If you possess a monitor that may only be used for 12 V and 24-V electrics is being
used, a voltage converter must be installed.
