Match Interface Cabling Requirements
Connect the VarioMatch match network's 15-pin
with a shielded, 15-wire 1/0 cable. Minimize signal losses by keeping the cable as
short as possible. The maximum recommended cable length between the V arioMatch
match network and the controller is 10 meters (33 feet), although this may vary by
installation. Minimize interference from adjacent electrical equipment by terminating
the EMI shield in the cable to the metal shells of the cable's connectors. Additionally,
you must tie the chassis of the V arioMatch match network to a local earth ground
through an adequately sized copper grounding strap.
Note: Grounding the
noise interference. To avoid ground loop

Pin Descriptions
Unless otherwise specified, all analog signals are 0 V to 10 V. Digital signals are
referenced to ground. All inputs need to be switched to ground to activate, all outputs
are open-collector.
