Step 3 - Prepare and Connect Wiring

1.

If using a VGA cable, remove approximately 35mm (1.35 in) of the outer jacket 
of the cable. 

Remove approximately 25mm (1 in) of the outer jacket of each coaxial cable. 

Remove approximately 4mm (.18 in) of the core wire insulation. 

If the shielding of the coaxial cable is braided wire, twist the shield wires for each 

coaxial cable to a smaller diameter sufficient to fit within the phoenix terminal 
block. 

If the shielding of the coaxial cable is foil with a drain wire, separate the drain 

wire for installation into the Phoenix terminal block. 

2.

Insert the shielding conductor and the signal wire for each signal (Red, Green, 
Blue, Horizontal Sync, Vertical Sync, Left Audio, Right Audio) into the 
corresponding terminal. 

3.

Secure each connection using the terminal screw, according to the schematic 
provided in FIG. 5: 

Step 4 - Secure the Cable To the Module

Using two small provided tie wraps, secure the cable(s) to the circuit card on the 
backside of the module, such that the cable exits to the side of the module (FIG. 6)

Step 5 - Insert the Module Into the HPX-1600 Chassis

Insert the module into the main chassis of the HPX-1600 Base Assembly.
Note the position of module interlock tab: this tab should face towards the bottom of 
the HPX-1600 Base assembly when installed in its mounted position (FIG. 7). 

Step 6 - Install the Bottom Cover On the HPX-1600

Note

: Install any remaining modules into the Hydraport Base Assembly before 

installing the Bottom Cover on the HPX-1600.

1.

Install the bottom cover (including the Power Inlet Assembly) onto the bottom of 
the main frame of the Hydraport Base Assembly. 
The cables from the HPX-AV100-RGB+A Composite AV Module as well as all 
other modules (except AC Power Outlets) will exit the bottom of the Hydraport 
Base Assembly through one of four square passages on either side of the 
bottom cover.

2.

After the bottom cover is secured using four screws, secure the cables to the 
corresponding tab near each opening using a small cable tie (FIG. 8).
