3-8 Installation KPCI-PIO24 User’s Manual
CAUTION If a cable is connected to any external circuits, make sure power
to all external circuits is turned OFF before connecting this cable
to the KPCI-PIO24 board. Connecting a powered external cable
to the board can damage the board, the external circuit, or both.
Handle the board at the mounting bracket, using a grounded
wrist strap. Do not touch the circuit traces or connector contacts.
If you do not have a grounded wrist strap, periodically discharge
static electricity by placing one hand firmly on a grounded metal
portion of the computer chassis.
Using locally fabricated cable assemblies
To mate a locally fabricated cable to an I/O connector, install a female 37-pin “D” type mating
connector (Keithley part no. SFC-37) on the cable.
