Connecting WCMs to MUX and DMX Modules
To connect a WCM to MUX and DMX modules, follow these steps:
Step 1 Remove the dust cover from one end of a jumper and the blind plug from the
WCM connector labeled R/T (remote transmitter). Connect the MiniSC plug to
the open connector.
Step 2 Remove the dust cover from the other end of the jumper and the blind plug from
the corresponding MUX connector. For example, if you interconnect the seventh
WCM, remove the blind plug from the MUX connector labeled 7. (See
Figure 5-1.)
