Cabinet Installation and Earth Grounding Setup

Follow the steps outlined below to setup the TPC system. Please note that the sys-
tem's grounding pin should be connected to an earth ground. This will provide the
system with EMI, ESD, and surge immunity, as well as system isolation. If the TPC
system is embedded in a cabinet, the TPC system's ground, the cabinet's ground,
and an earth ground should be connected together.
1. Installing the TPC system in the cabinet.
Step A: Connect the cabinet to an earth ground.
Step B: Embed a null TPC system into the cabinet without an I/O cable or power.
2. Wiring the system.
Step A: Connect the cabinet to an earth ground.
Step B: Ensure that all cabinet devices have been grounded together.
Step C: Connect the ground of the power supply to the cabinet.
Step D: Connect the ground pin of the TPC system to the cabinet.
Step E: Connect the I/O to the controller if needed.
