2.6 Connecting the Cables to the ExtIO
2.6.1 Connecting the Ethernet Cable to the ExtIO
1) Remove the outer shell from the ExtIO: Re-
move the outer shell (item1.3) from the ExtIO.
Use the supplied Allen wrench (item1.14) for
this purpose.
2) Remove the mounting ring from the ExtIO:
Remove the mounting ring from the ExtIO.
Carefully bend the four black clamps of the
mounting ring back, one after the other using
a suitable tool.
3) Remove the back of the ExtIO housing: Re-
move the back of the ExtIO. Use a suitable
Phillips screwdriver to remove the two Fillister
head screws in the bottom. Gently press on
the screw heads with the screwdriver before
fully removing them; this will press the top
shell of the housing out of its seat. Never in-
sert tools into the sealed openings as this
may damage parts on the ExtIO's main
board!
4) Prepare the Ethernet cable: Remove about 6
to 8cm (2.4 to 3.2in) of insulation from the
Ethernet cable. Shorten the sheath to about
1cm (3/8in) and carefully fold it backwards
around the insulation. Apply the suitable rub-
ber plug around the Ethernet cable.
The delivered parts of the ExtIO include rub-
ber plugs for cables with outside diameters
from 3 to 5mm (1/8 to 3/16in) and 5 to 7mm
(3/16 to 9/32in). Cables with larger outside
diameters must not be used.
