Control
Head Outside of Computer
-
If you prefer not
to
install the control head
into
your
computer,
if you don’t have any spare drive bays for example, an accessory kit
(P/N
505ECH) is available that allows the control head
to
sit on a desk top. This kit includes a finished
(painted)
cover
for
the control head, rubber mounting feet and
a
cable that connects the
RJ- I2
port on the rear panel of the transceiver
to
your computer’s serial port. When this
RJ- I 2
cable
is
used, the 2-port junction panel and jumper cable described on the previous page are not
used.
Note:
The
cables supplied
with
the
505DSP
allow for m
ounting
the
control
inside
the computer
drive
bay only. Order the
505ECH
lut

external use of the control head, connect the 2.5m
(8
ft.)
control head cable (included with
the
505DSP) and the optional
RJ
I 2 cable (supplied with the
505ECH
kit) according
