How to Make a Connection
Preliminary Connection
1.
Ground yourself and all devices. Wear a grounded wrist strap and work on
a grounded, conductive table mat. Refer to
for ESD precautions.
2.
Visually inspect the connectors. Refer to
“Visual Inspection” on page 3-4
.
3.
If necessary, clean the connectors. Refer to
.
4.
Carefully align the connectors. The male connector center pin must slip
concentrically into the contact finger of the female connector.
5.
Push the connectors straight together and tighten the connector nut
finger tight. As the center conductors mate, there is usually a slight
resistance.
6.
Initial tightening can be done by hand, or with a 6 mm open-end wrench.
Tighten until “snug” or where the connectors are first making contact. The
preliminary connection is tight enough when the mating plane surfaces
make uniform, light contact.
Do not overtighten
this connection.
At this point, all you want is for the outer conductors to make gentle
contact on both mating surfaces. Use very light finger pressure (no more than 2
inch–pounds of torque).
7.
Relieve any side pressure on the connection from long or heavy devices, or
cables. This assures consistent torque (refer to “Using the Torque Wrench”
on page 3-14).
Do
not
twist one connector into the other (like inserting a light bulb). This
happens when you turn the device body, rather than the connector nut.
Major damage to the center conductor and the outer conductor can occur
if the device body is twisted.
