AXlink

To install the AXlink data/power bus wiring:

1.Strip .25 inch off the wire insulation for all four wires. If the wire is 20 AWG or less, fold the exposed wire over to obtain a positive connection.

2.Insert each wire into the appropriate opening on the connector. See FIG. 4.

3.Turn the captive screws clockwise to secure the fit. Do not over torque the screw; doing so can bend the seating pin and damage the connector.
