■ Wiring Precautions
• Signal lines and power lines must be separated to avoid influence of noise.
• Do not lay cables close to antennas.
• Wiring must be done while power is off.
• Use a pin terminal and a cable for connection as shown below.
0 to 0.5 mm
Insufficient Stripping Length

Correct
Incorrect
• A pin terminal must be clamped with an
appropriate tool based on its size.The tip of a
wire must be cut in the same length as the pin
terminal or 0.5mm longer. Whiskers are not
allowed, and a pin terminal must not be
broken.
• Plug the pin terminal into the power terminal block
to the end.Fix wiring close to its connector so that
a cable should not apply load to the connector due
to its twisting or weight.
• A pin terminal must be unplugged while inserting a
flat-head screw driver as shown below.
● Main Unit Power Wiring
Power supply voltage of the wireless unit is 24VDC.A wireless unit requires 24VDC
power supply.
Use S8VM/VS series power source of 15W or higher, taking inrush current on startup
into account.
● Margin and Spacing
For heat release, ensure space between a
wireless unit and a control panel or other
equipment as shown in the right.
Power supply voltage 24 VDC
Allowable Voltage Range 20.4 to 26.4 VDC
