The Main Extender is to be used with allcircuit boards that use the 50 conductor
microprocessor bus cable.The Secondary Extender card is added to the Main
Extender for use with the Log and Phase Lock CFC boards. See Figure 6--1.

Figure 6- 1: MainExt ender and Secondary Extender
On the Main Extender,signal lines and power supply lines from the bottom edge
connector to the pins at the top edgeof the Extender are completed by a set of
two pin jumpers (excluding two ground lines andthe 50 conductor microproces-
sor bus cable). Thus, except for the two ground lines, all signal and power supply
lines are interruptible via these two pin jumpers.
Signal lines are brought to squarepins where they can be steered to one of two
BNC connectors on the Main Extender. See Figure 6--2. There are 20 rows of
3 pin sets numbered 1 through 12 and 17 through 24. The numberscorrespond to
pin numbers of the interconnectsystem on the Power Supply board. Placing a
jumper at position A in Figure 6--2 steers the selected signal to BNC connec-
tor A, and ajumper at position B steers the signal to connector B. Consequently,
a maximum of two signals may be steeredto the BNC connectors at any one
time.
