1. This extra connector must be bolted into the card cage In the case of the B007 the connector has three coax SMB leads which are terminated in BNC sockets The BNC sockets can plug directly into the back to back BNC plugs in the hinged rear panel In the case of the B006 and other boards the extra connector carries up to 32 links 5 RS232 connections The RS232 cables are packaged together with their fixings in the rear of the ITEM If a cable is needed to connect to a board the cable should be routed along the side of the card cage to be plugged into the front of the board2. which needs to be removed before any board can be plugged in The rear panel is also hinged and can be opened by unscrewing the bolt on the left of the hinged panel 3 1 Earth connection A terminal block is fixed to the wall between the power supply and the card cage close to the hinge of the rear panel On the left of this terminal block is the connection between logic OV and Mains Earth 3 2 Fan speed The fan can be driven at two speeds When run from 12V it is considerably quieter than when run at 24V At the lower voltage and speed there is substantial airflow The higher speed is designed to cool the ITEM when the full 60A from the power supply is being used To change the fan speed remove the fan leads from the 12V contacts on the terminal block and plug them into the 24V contacts to the right of the terminal block 4 Edge connectors 4 1 Standard connectors The evaluation boards are supplied with a set of link cables reset cables and a DIN 41612 socket which the board plugs into This DIN socket then acts as a plug for the link cables etc The DIN socket is used in a similar way in the ITEM but instead of mating directly with the board the DIN socket is plugged into the back of a fixed DIN connector into which the board plugs The DIN socket which is supplied with the board is then used to take the link and reset cables 4 2 Extra connectors The B007 and B006 and future boards use an extra edge connector
