General Wiring Information

In general, all DC analog signals should be wired using shielded cable with a 360 degree braid. The braid should connect to the circular connector shell (i.e. chassis ground). In certain cases, where EMI is a significant concern, the cable shield should also be chassis grounded on the opposite end of the cable as well.
