  • Garrett GTI2500 coil cable

    Hi.
    I made a modification at the unit of my GTI as to cream in throat because it is heavy and now i need be distant the cable.
    Does anyone knows what type cable i must order and from where???

    Regards

      Geo,

      The cable is "Tri-Axial" three shielded leads plus one unshielded, seven conductors. It is custom made for Garrett and not available as far as I know. You can use S-video cable if you do not need the imaging.

      This is the 7 pin connector.

      1) Blue shield/Red Shield- RX Gnd
      2)Red Center - RX
      3)green - 560K resistor pin 3 to pin 5 - Tells the detector it's a non imaging coil
      4)White center -TX
      5)White shield -TX gnd
      6)Blue center - RX - Not used on non imaging coils
      7)Jumper to pin 1

      Using S-video cable try this
      1) RX shield
      2) Rx
      3) 560K resistor to pin 5
      4) Tx
      5) Tx shield and resistor
      6) not used
      7) jumper to pin 1 (probably imaging gnd?)

      good luck it's a mess

        Hi Altra.
        Thank you very much.
        I like the imaging so maybe to use a S-video cable plus a one axial+shield cable.

        Regards

          Hi Geo,
          You can use 2 s-video cables in that case. Forget the resistor it's already inside the coil. On the fourth coax just use the center for the original green going to pin 3.

            Geo, you can buy similar cables in Bulgaria from Farnell. Unfortunately, Farnel has no representation in Greece.

              Mike,
              The cable you referenced may not work well. It is twisted pairs with unisulated shielding. All the high end detectors these days are using seperate COAX for TX and RX, for obvious reasons.
