Installing the Link 1000

Wiring the Terminal Block

Prepare for wiring by following these guidelines:

•Pull the wires and the phone cable through the opening in the mounting plate (unless you are running them down from the bottom of the mounting plate).

•Prepare the wires by giving each:

•A clean cut

•A clean strip

•A tightly twisted end

•Loosen the terminal block screws, pry the wire clamps open with a paper clip, and insert the wires using needle- nose pliers.

•Tighten the screws firmly, but do not overtighten.

To wire the terminal block:

•Insert the wires in the terminal block following the sequence shown below.

Note: Terminal 1 is next to the phone cable jack.

Terminal Wire Color and Function

1Black. Control panel negative to the large bolt on the load side of the shunt.

2Green. Sense lead to the load side of the shunt.

3Orange. Sense lead to the battery side of the shunt.

4Blue. Voltage sense lead to the positive battery terminal.

5Red. Power lead to the positive battery terminal.

6Violet. Voltage sense lead to the positive battery terminal. Connect this lead if you are monitoring the voltage of a second (starting) battery.
