Before installation, check the notes below regarding running of the cables.
The MCU-005 is designed to be flush-mounted in a console or panel.
Note regarding running of the cables
To reduce stress on the connectors, prevent accidental disconnection and also to prevent water
intrusion, make sure that the wiring at the rear of the control unit meets the following recommen-
dations.
• Cables should not be run upwards from the units. Make sure the cable are run downwards.
• Cables should be bundled together with sufficient slack to allow service and maintenance.
• Bundled cables should be secured in a manner that prevents stress on the connectors, caused
by heave and pitch.
The figures below show examples of cabling, along with the above recommendations.

Cables should not be routed in
a way that allows moisture or
water to drip into the unit.
Cables should not be hung
freely. This causes stress
on the connectors and may
cause disconnections.
Cables should be bundled
with a wire-tie and secured
against the inside of the
console or to a bulkhead.
There should be enough
slack in the cables to allow
service and maintenance.
