Finalize Hoist Installation
After assembling your hoist and installing cable management, there are a couple additional
items required before you can start running the hoist. Terminating the lift lines to the drum is the
next logical step, but before you can perform this task you need to power the hoist and ensure
the wiring is oriented properly and the motor is running in the correct direction.

Run Power and Data
The hoist ships with a power cable and a data cable.
The power cable has a female Twist-Lock connector
on one end, which you should connect at the motor
box on the hoist. The other end has a male Twist-Lock,
which connects to the FlyPipe Power and Control
Distribution (PCD) box.
The data cable has round nine-pin connectors attached
to each end, one of which you should connect to a
receptacle on the hoist motor box. The other end
connects to the FlyPipe Power and Control Distribution
(PCD) box.
For additional information, refer to the Prodigy and
FlyPipe PCD Electronics Installation Guide.
