3.1
Introduction
WARNING
The procedures in this section are in-
tended only for qualiÞed service per-
sonnel. Do not perform these
procedures unless qualiÞed to do so.
Failure to recognize and observe nor-
mal safety precautions could result
in personal injury or death.
The information in this section is arranged as follows:
3.2
Handling precaution:
Explains precautions that
must be followed to prevent contamination to the
matrix card assembly. Contamination could de-
grade the performance of the matrix card.
3.3
Connection:
Covers the basics for connecting ex-
ternal circuitry to the two available connector
cards for the matrix; the screw terminal connec-
tor card and the multi-pin connector card.
3.4
Typical connection scheme:
Provides some typi-
cal connection schemes for single card, two-card
and two-mainframe system conÞgurations.
3.5
Model 7012 installation:
Provides a procedure to
install the matrix card assembly in the Model
7001 mainframe.
3.2
Handling precautions
To maintain high impedance isolation, care should be
taken when handling the relay card to avoid contami-
nation from such foreign materials as body oils. Such
contamination can substantially lower leakage resis-
tances, thus degrading performance.
To avoid possible contamination, always grasp the re-
lay and connector cards by the side edges or shields.
Do not touch the board surfaces or components. On
connectors, do not touch areas adjacent to the electrical
contacts. Dirt build-up over a period of time is another
possible source of contamination. To avoid this prob-
lem, operate the mainframe and matrix card in a clean
environment.
If a card becomes contaminated, it should be thorough-
ly cleaned as explained in paragraph 5.2.
3.3
Connections
This paragraph provides the basic information needed
to connect your external test circuitry to the matrix. It
includes the removal/installation of the backplane row
jumpers on the relay card, and detailed information on
the two available connector cards.
