What Do the 3 or 4 JB20/RIH Cables Do?
The RIH connects to the JB20 junction box with 3 or 4 cables. Each one carries something different, so knowing which cable does what helps you find a problem fast. Cable 4 is only needed when the site uses fluid pulsers 11–16.
The Cables
Cables are numbered from top to bottom. The yellow numbers on the photo match the table.
| Cable | What it carries |
| 1 | Power to the RIH and the solenoid valves |
| 2 | Communications between the RIH and the DeviceMaster/Moxa Vehicle detector Fluid pulsers 1–6 |
| 3 | RF system: the fixed reader (FR55 or FR200) Fluid pulsers 7–10 |
| 4 | Fluid pulsers 11–16 Only on sites that use more than 10 fluid pulsers. Many RIHs have just 3 cables. |
Which Cable Should I Check?
| What you see | Check cable |
| RIH display is dark, or none of the valves will open | 1 |
| RIH is offline in SAM, or not talking to the server | 2 |
| Fluids on pulsers 1–6 aren’t counting | 2 |
| Vehicle detector isn’t working | 2 |
| Vehicles aren’t being read (fixed reader) | 3 |
| Fluids on pulsers 7–10 aren’t counting | 3 |
| Fluids on pulsers 11–16 aren’t counting | 4 |
Before you unplug anything: turn off CB1 in the JB20 to power down the RIH. When you reconnect a cable, make sure the connector is fully seated and locked.
