As shown in Figure 1, the 038-003-085 EMC SPS Sense cable is connected to the SPS unit via the RJ12 end, and to the SPE/DPE via the Micro DB9 connector. The DB9 connector can be 3-pin or 9-pin in layout under the same part number 038-003-085, and should work regardless of the pinout.

It is important to cable each SPS so it connects completely to either the A side or the B side. (See Figure 2 below) For example, if you are looking at the SPS from the back, they should be configured as follows:
- SPS on the right: Power-out and sense cables should connect to power supply A and SP A.
- SPS on the left: Power-out and sense cables should connect to power supply B and SP B (optional).
If an SPS is cabled with the SPS sense cable going to SP A and the power-out cable going to power supply B (or vice versa), error conditions are displayed when the SPS is tested while it is charging.
