■ Tools and Accessories (Sold Separately)
XG4Z-0004 Polarizing Key
Polarity guides and slots can be used by
themselves to help prevent reverse inser-
tion. Use the Polarizing Key as well for best
results.
Note: Each XG4Z-0004 has 4 Polarizing
Keys.
XG4Z-0005 Coding Pin
(To prevent erroneous insertion)
The Coding Pin is used to prevent confu-
sion when many Connectors with the same
number of contacts are lined up. It can also
be used to prevent reverse insertion when
using Connectors without a shroud like the
XG8 Unshrouded Plug. The Coding Pin
can also be used with XC5, and XC6 DIN
Connectors as well as with XG5 Discrete-
wire IDC Connectors.
Note: 1. A contact with a Coding Pin in-
serted cannot be used.
2. Each XG4Z-0005 has 4 Polarizing
Keys.
XY2E-0002 Contact Cutting Driver
The Contact Cutting Driver is used to cut
(twist off) a contact on the mating Plug
when using an XG4Z-0005 Coding Pin.
■ Precautions
Correct Use
• Automated Soldering Conditions (Jet
Flow)
1. Soldering temperature: 250 ±5°C
2.
Continuous soldering time: Within 5±1 s
• Soldering
Solder-mount the XG4A with the lock levers
fully closed or fully open.
Solder-mounting the XG4A with the lock
lever half-open may cause play in lock lever
due to thermal deformation of the housing.
•Storage
If the lock levers of the XG4A or XG4E con-
nector are left at an intermediate position
for a long time, they may get to feel loose in
operation due to deterioration of the plastic
part. When the lock levers are not used,
store the plug with the lock levers fully
closed or fully open.
