5.5 Connecting the Cables
To operate the detector, the data cables and the ground should be connected.
For specification of cables and pipes see section 4.1.4.
The PILATUS 1M detector is equipped with one data cable.
Connect RX to RX and TX to TX on the GigaSTaR Card in the PC. Labels for
the connections are printed on the server housing. The single connectors go
to the corresponding connector on the back of the detector.
The data cable should be pulled onto the computer connectors with
the screws, rather than forcefully pushed on.
A forceful connection can damage the PCI card.
It is important for data integrity that the screws are tightened.
To plug or unplug any cables, turn the detector off.
