Step Action
1Choose a clean environment to assemble the Option Adapter and processor to
protect the circuitry from contamination.
2Align the two plastic snap extensions on the sides of the M1 Processor Adapter
with the slots on the sides of the Option Adapter.
The 12-pin connectors and processor extension connectors will automatically
line up when the units are in this position. The two devices should be oriented
so that their communication ports are facing out on the back side of the
assembly.
CAUTION
PIN ALIGNMENT
Proper assembly requires that the 34 pins on the processor extension
connector be aligned correctly with the mating socket on the M1 processor
adapter. Do not connect one side and try to rotate the M1 onto the option
adapter.
Failure to observe this precaution can result in equipment damage.
3Push the Processor Adapter onto the Option Adapter, gently pressing the
locking tabs inward.
Result: The locking tabs on each side of the Processor Adapter slide inside
the Option Adapter and out through the locking slot. The 12-pin and 34-pin
connectors on the two units are mated to each other in the process.
