Threading the Cable Assembly
Earlier in the installation, you threaded the necessary cables through the frame of the base unit and out the passthrough opening in the console mount. As you line up the back plate on the console with the console mount, you must make sure that the cable assembly passes correctly through the openings in both components.
Important: Before you begin the following procedure, remove the mounting screws from the console mount and the rear cover from the control console. Set the cover and its mounting hardware aside for later use.
To thread the cable assembly:
1.Make sure that as much of each cable as possible passes through the opening in the middle of the console mount on the base unit.
2.Position the console over the console mount.
3.Rest the console on the console mount so that the notch on the bottom of the console’s back plate rests on the rectangular hook at the bottom of the console mount, as shown in the following figure.
4.Tilt the console forward until it stops. Use one hand to steady the console in this position, or ask your assistant to do so.
5.Pull all cables upward and forward until you can drape them over the top of the console’s back plate.
