DISCUSSION
Direct entry rear connectors will begin shipping in March 2001. Direct entry connectors are described in
this Addendum and all power, ground, station common, and signal terminals are identified.
Consult the nameplate on the case to determine whether direct entry connectors have been installed.
Model 353_2_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Side entry1 connectors are installed
Model 353_4_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Direct entry connectors with Ethernet connector are installed
Section 6 Installation, in UM353-1, describes the black side
entry connectors and the connections to be made to them. In
the following, the direct entry connectors will be described
and illustrated.
Direct entry connectors are shown in the adjacent figure.
There are four connectors with 52 screw-clamping terminal
connections. Each connector consists of a case mounted
portion and a plug-in portion. The plug-in portion of each
connector is securely fastened to the case mounted portion
by a screw at each end of the plug-in. The plug-in portion
can be completely wired and then plugged into the case
mounted portion.
Terminal functions and numbers have not changed. For
example, Station/Transmitter Common is terminal 6 on the
side entry and direct entry connectors.
A standard 8-wire Ethernet connector is provided near the
bottom of the assembly. A case ground screw is provided
near the top of the assembly, as in the side entry connectors.
The next page contains an illustration that states the
connections to the direct entry connectors.

Notes:
1. Terminal numbers are shown on each connector. The plug-in portions of the connectors are packed with a case.
The connectors are keyed.
2. Case/Safety Ground - Connect to green screw at top center of rear terminal area.
3. NCA and NCB - Connect LIL Twinaxial Cable or twisted pair wiring. Refer to Section 6.5 for additional details.
4. IOA and IOB - LonWorks bus connections. Twisted pair wiring is typical.
5. Ground Bus - An external, user-supplied ground bus can ease connection of multiple grounds, particularly when
