3.Carefully strip 1/4" of the insulation from the black and red twisted pair wire. If too little insulation is stripped, and insulation is inside the connector, the network will not communicate. If too much is stripped, the wires will short. Refer to Figure 5.

4.Remove the connector (part number 210099) from the literature packet or kit.

5.Insert the wire into the connector. The red incoming wire goes into slot 1 and the black incoming wire goes into slot 2. Check that only wire, not insulation is inside the connector. Incorrect installation could result in the network not communicating. Secure the wires in place by tightening the screws on top of the connector. refer to Figure 6

6.Cut an ample length of wire to reach the next machine’s connector. The wire should be long enough to move the machine for maintenance, but not so long as to interfere with normal operation. refer to Figure 7

7.Strip 1/4 if the insulation and place the red outgoing wire into slot 4 and black outgoing into slot 5. Follow the same procedure in step 5.

8.Connect the wired connector to the Network Board Header. Refer to Figure 7.

9.Run the wire to the next machine and follow steps 3-8 until all machines have been connected. Refer to Figure 7.

10.On the final machine, wires should be run into slots 1 and 2 as on all previous machines. A 120 Ohm, 1/2 Watt terminating resistor should be placed in slots 4 and 5 to terminate the connection at the end of the network. Refer to Figure 7.

NOTE: It is recommended that some type of terminal strip be used when connecting banks of machines onto a network. This should be done so that a bank of machines can easily be bypassed in the network for purposes such as debugging network problems. A barrier block (such as part number 210161) may be used for this purpose.
