Voyager III Joystick Control Unit (JCU) 
The cable gland seal is designed for use with double-shielded category 5 
Ethernet cable. To ensure a good seal and to maintain compliance with EMI 
ratings, a double-shielded cable is required.
The JCU enclosure is rated IP66 above the JCU mounting surface/gasket and 
rated IP64 behind or below the gasket.
Caution : An installation template is provided in the JCU ICD (Doc. #...

If you intend to mount the JCU to a panel of 0.31 inches (0.79 cm) thickness or 
less, remove the clamps from the mounting screws, turn them around and thread 
them back onto each of the four screws. In this configuration, the clamp foot faces 
the rear of the mounting surface and a llows the clamp to contact thinner panel 
surfaces while still allowing for proper co mpression of the JCU mounting gasket to 
form a...
