3. Testing continuity from the circuit board through the communication cable
a) Remove the steel cover and unscrew the plastic lid from the external Controller.
b) Look for the brown Molex 3-pin connector circled in Figure 14.4. The color sequence
(left->right) should be white-green-black. CAREFULLY wiggle each wire to check for
a loose connection.
c) Check continuity between the following pins:

BEFORE TESTING)
d) Check continuity from brown Molex connector to 9 pin serial connector; this tests
continuity from the circuit board to the DataLogger or PC. (Figure 14.5)
