1. Install the remote strobe light heads in the preferred locations and route the three wire cable from the remote strobe heads to the PSE440 power supply. Leave enough cable at the power supply so that the cables are not strained when connected to the power supply. Follow the installation instructions for the... - Page 5 2. After the cables have been properly routed for each strobe head they will have to be terminated with the three pin AMP socket housings provided. The cables are factory terminated with the proper AMP pins for insertion into the housings, see Figure 3. If there is a need to re-terminate any wires, Figure 3 also includes stripping and crimping information.
- Page 6 FLASH CONTROL HARNESS ASSEMBLY The Flash Control wire harness is to be connected to the 4 position socket connector on the PSE440 strobe power supply. (See Figure 3 on page 5). The Flash Control harness consists of an AMP 4 pin connector with 4 wires : white, orange , yellow and brown.
