These steps provide the most thorough and accurate instructions The SVFT-M model mounts on a Vicon mount (refer to the Introduction section) or a 1.5-inch vertical pipe with appropriate coupling. The pipe is a standard 1.5-inch NPT type and must be oriented vertically so the SVFT-M can effectively hang from the pipe.
a) Strip approximately 1 inch (25 mm) of the cable outer jacket to be terminated in terminal blocks TB1 and TB3. Then strip approximately 0.25 inches (6 mm) of insulation off of each individual wire. b) Refer to Wiring section and Table 2 to make all connections to terminal block TB1 (power), TB2 (alarms), TB3 (relays/control signals) and TB4 UTP video).
