Arrows on the figure indicate where
the screws should go.
Note: the arrow indicating the top of
the sensor shall point in the same
direction as the arrow indicating the
top of the JBox. The arrow on the
figure shows where the indication
can be found at the sensor.
Attention: After the sensor connector
is attached to the JBOX, do not
further turn or twist the JBOX as this
may damage the connector, until all
the screws are securely tightened.
