Wiring your CW-80 Transformer (continued)
2. Attach one wire to the Lockon spring clip terminal labeled "1" and connect
it to the power terminal labeled "A". All Controller connections are
illustrated in Figure 2.
To attach the wire to the Lockon, press down on the top of the terminal clip so that a metal
loop is formed. Slide the bare end of the wire into the exposed loop. Release pressure on the
terminal clip, allowing the crimped metal to pinch the end of the wire in the metal loop.
Give a little tug on the wire to check if the hold is secure.
To attach the wire to the Transformer terminal, loosen the thumbscrew to expose the
hole in the terminal shaft, then insert the bare end of the wire into the hole. Tighten the
thumbscrew, making sure that the bare wire is in contact with the terminal shaft.
3. Attach a second wire to the Lockon spring clip terminal labeled "2" and
connect it to the power terminal labeled "U".
4. Attach a third wire to the Transformer terminal labeled "B" and connect it
to your accessories.
5. Attach a final wire from your accessories to the Transformer terminal
labeled "U".
6. Plug the CW-80 Transformer into your wall outlet (120 volts).
