4.16 Field Setup

To reduce the chance of external interference,
minimize the cost of wire, and avoid excessive voltage
losses in the multiconductor cables, the receiver/driver
should be located as close to the pan/tilt as possible.
This also allows for convenient use of the local test
feature. The receiver/driver should also be mounted in
a secure place out of direct sunlight. Holes should be
punched in the bottom half of the box and fitted with
parts compatible with the type of installation.
After the cables have been pulled into this box, refer
to the following sections for the specific hookup.

4.17 Connecting Line Power

Connection of power to this unit is a simple matter
requiring no special tools. Make sure that the wire has
been properly inserted inside the unit through an
acceptable gland or fitting to maintain weatherproof
integrity of the box. See the enclosed recommended
instructions sheet.
Recommended wire size is 2.5 mm
minimum for all models except the LTC 8564/20.
See the LTC 8564/20 AC Supply Wiring Guide. Use
all proper precautions when installing the line voltage
cable to the device.

Refer to the following procedure for line power
installation.
CAUTION: Before proceeding, be sure to
disconnect the live power from the cable to be
installed into the receiver/driver. Be sure that
the receiver/driver is of the proper line voltage
type for line power being used.
1. Prepare the line and neutral wires by stripping
1⁄4-inch from each wire
2. Locate the gray 2 wire cage-clamp connector
marked with N and L on the bottom of the unit.
3. Connect the ground wire to the screw marked
with the ground symbol.
4. Connect the neutral wire to the cage-clamp
marked N by inserting a flat blade screwdriver
in the slot on top and pushing in to open the
clamp. Then insert the striped wire on the slide
and remove the screwdriver to close the clamp.
5. Connect the line wire to the cage-clamp marked
L as described above.
