If wiring 1 cable to the System Touch, cut the shield wire off at the outer jacket, then wrap the cable with tape
at the outer jacket to cover the end of the shield wire.

with tape.

Connect wiring to the System Touch as shown below:
CAUTION Allow no more than 0.06 inch (1.5 mm) bare communication wire to protrude. If bare
communication wire contacts the cable's foil shield, shield wire, or a metal surface other than the terminal
block, the device may not communicate correctly.
