Archon to Tekmar LSC 2000/3000 to Varian 3400 and 3600 GC's
When connecting to a Varian series 3400 or 3600 GC with Star Workstation,
connectors from both the Archon I/O cable and the Star Workstation cable
must access the J16 and J23 connectors on the GC motherboard. This is
possible using the J16 Splitter (p/n DY-700030-00) and the J23 Splitter
(p/n DY-700031-00) following the instructions below:
1
Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the GC. Remove the
top panels to allow access to the GC motherboard.
2
Route the GC-end of the Archon I/O cable and the GC-end of the Star
Workstation cable through the back panel of the GC (see Star Workstation
installation diagram).
3
Connect the 5-pin female Molex connector (P23) from the Star Workstation
cable to the male connector on the J23 Splitter with 4 pins (the second
position lacks a pin).
4
Connect the 5-pin female Molex connector from the Archon I/O cable to the
5-pin male connector on the J23 Splitter.
5
Connect the J23 Splitter to the J23 connector on the GC motherboard (see
GC manual for motherboard layout schematic).
6
Connect the 4-pin female Molex connector from the Archon I/O cable to
either of the 4-pin male connectors on the J16 Splitter.
7
Connect the 4-pin female Molex connector (P16) from the Star Workstation
cable to either of the 4-pin male connectors on the J16 Splitter.
