Strain Relief Cable Clamps

Equipment Required: Phillips screwdriver (not supplied by Honeywell)
There are five strain relief cable clamps secured to the Standard Dock.
There is one strain relief cable clamp and three strain relief brackets for securing cables to the Enhanced Dock.
Use the strain relief clamps to secure audio, power, and I/O cables attached to the Thor VM3 dock.
Use the left-most strain relief clamp for the power cable.
Standard Dock
To use the strain relief clamp(s):
1. Determine the proper strain relief cable clamp. There are three sizes of cable clamps on the Standard Dock which
should be matched to the cable to be secured. For example, the largest clamp (on the left when viewing the back of
the dock) is designed to secure the power cable. For the Enhanced Dock there is a single cable clamp. Use this clamp
for the power cable, Use the brackets for all other cables.
2. Remove the strain relief clamp from the Thor VM3 by turning the screw counterclockwise. Put the screw aside in a
safe location.
3. Slide the strain relief clamp over the cable.
4. Using a Phillips screwdriver and the screw that was removed, refasten the clamp holding the cable to the Dock. Do not
stretch the cable. Leave enough slack in the cable to allow it to be connected and disconnected easily when needed.
5. Continue in this manner until all cables are secured to the dock.
To use the strain relief brackets (Enhanced Dock only):
1. Secure the cable to the bracket with plastic tie straps (cable ties).
2. If necessary, the cable ties can be trimmed to length after installation. Cut the excess tie length off flush and not at an
angle to prevent sharp edges that may cause cuts.
