To secure the seal block: 

1.  Start the threads of each of the four captive screws into the cable base receptacle 

holes. 

2.  Drive each of the screws about halfway down, using the proper torque sequence: 

Bottom screw, top screw, left screw, right screw. Doing so insures that the cables are 
pierced evenly. 

3.  Using the proper torque sequence, tighten each screw, a little at a time, until the 

seal block is fully seated into the cable base. Tighten to no more than 8 to 10 inch-
pounds (3.0 to 3.7 N

•

m) of torque. 

The three seat lines on the seal block should meet the cable base, indicating that the 
seal block is fully seated. The seal block clips should also click into place onto the 
corresponding cable base slots. 

Installing KwikLink™ Connectors 
KwikLink connectors let you connect the controller and the power supply to the system. They 
are also used to electronically terminate power cable and data cable runs. 

Just like ArmorBlocks, KwikLink connectors are insulation displacement connectors (IDCs). 

Gently push back any protruding IDC blades before installing flat cables 
inside. 

The KwikLink connector should already be attached to the mounting plate, so the hinge side 
is down. If not, reinstall it with its proper alignment, along the correct flat cable. See the 
installation drawing located in your Customer Information Packet for further details. 

To install flat cable inside KwikLink connectors: 

1.  Lay the cable in the hinged base, noting the correct keyed profile; flat edge toward 

the hinge, keyed edge toward the latch. Make sure that the cable is properly seated 
inside.
