HP 14802A Terminal
Block Connections
The HP 14802A Terminal Block is designed to simplify
wire connections to your HP PC Instruments Digital I/O.
Each HP 14802A comes with two screw terminal fixtures
and two cables to connect the fixtures to the front of your
Digital I/O. One cable is terminated in a male connector,
the other is terminated in a female connector. The male
connector mates with the output connector on the Digital
I/O
front panel; the female connector mates with the input
connector on the Digital I/O front panel. The two screw
terminal fixtures are interchangeable and can connect to
either cable. If desired, the screw terminal fixtures can be
rail mounted. Figure D-l shows how to connect this
hardware to the front of your Digital I/O.
To make your wire connections to the screw terminal
fixtures, first loosen all of the screws on top of the fixture.
Strip your wires back approximately 0.2 in (5mm) and
insert them in the square holes on the front of the
terminal block. The screw terminals can accommodate wire
sizes from AWG 14 to AWG 28 (Metric 1.5-0.5mm2).
Check Tables D-'l and D-2 to make sure that you are
inserting your wires into the correct opening. Table D-l
gives the terminal block assignments for the input
connector. Table D-2 gives the terminal block assignments
for the output connector.
j caution]
To prevent shorted inputs, do not strip wires back more than 0.2
in. (5mm). insert wires fully into screw terminals.
