Maria's box wiring, Jan 2000

Top  Previous  Next

Wiring as cocked up and then misdescribed by Sandowne is in fact this...

 

N.B. All 25-way cables are straight through. Older Camden cables have different pinouts, so use RNC's map (or similar).

 

Note: black/grey is different from black/dirty white and black/cyan, though they are very similar!

(Black/grey is pin 24, ground; I think black/white is pin 22, unused.)

Camden pin 20 (spare 4) – not connected

Not used on the Camden panels: spare 4 / loudspeaker / centre

Must connect Camden panel COMMON and OPERATE to ground before the boxes will work.

Sandowne had described RIGHT LIGHT as connected to OUT 5, and had connected it to OUT 5, but they should have used OUT 6. Oops.
