PDQ G5 Wiring

Documentation provided courtesy of Sam Phillips

The PDQ wiring interface is installed in the car wash bay.  Install the Dencar Sealevel I/O device in the equipment room near the network cabinet.  Run wire from the PDQ wiring interface in the car wash bay to the Sealevel using 18/8 Brown Solid CU CL2 Thermostat Wire.  Here is a Home Depot link for reference.
