12.3.3 General Guidelines
The following guidelines apply whenever you set up your receiver for
operation:
• When plugging in a Lemo cable, make sure that the red dots on
the receiver port and the cable connector line up. Never use
force to plug cables in, as this may damage the connector pins.
• When disconnecting a Lemo cable, grasp the cable by the
sliding collar or lanyard and pull the cable connector straight
out of the port. Do not twist the connector or pull on the cable
itself.
• To securely connect a TNC cable, align the cable connector
with the receiver receptacle, then thread the cable connector
onto the receptacle until it is snug.
• To insert the internal battery (PN 38403) place the battery in the
battery compartment, ensuring that the contact points are in the
correct postion to align with the contacts in the receiver. Slide
the battery and compartment as a unit upward into the receiver
until the battery compartment latches are locked into position.
