CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK
3.9.4Connecting a Thin-Net Segment to an EPIM-C
To connect a thin-net segment to an EPIM-C:
1.Set the Internal Termination Switch (Figure 3-14), located above the port (when the EPIM has been inserted into the EMM-E6) and labeled TERM to:
•the ON position (
) to internally terminate the thin-net segment at the port.
•the OFF position (
) if you do not want the thin-net segment to internally terminate at the port.
2.If the Internal Termination Switch is in the On position, connect the thin-net segment directly to the BNC port.
3.If the Internal Termination switch is in the Off position:
a. Attach a BNC T-connector to the BNC port on the module.
b.Attach the thin-net segment to one (1) of the female connectors on the T-connector.
Failure to terminate each T-connector segment may result in
!improper segment operation. Place a terminator on any open
female connection on the T-connector.CAUTION
c.Attach another thin-coaxial segment or a terminator to the other female connector on the T-connector.
Connecting a thin-net segment to earth ground at more than one point could produce dangerous ground currents.
