1. Captive Screws. Two captive screws secure the Rear Connector
Panel to the chassis. Releasing them allows the hinged panel to
drop down.
2. Air Vents. Lightning’s internal components and power supply are
cooled by multiple fans. Air flows through the front vents to the
internal fans, and out through these rear chassis exhaust vents. To
provide optimum air flow, do not obstruct the front and rear vents.
3. Y/C Video Menu Output. One Y/C connector is provided for the
menu output in Y/C video format. Use this connector (and a
customer-supplied Y/C monitor) when you wish to monitor the
user interface in Y/C format (typically at distances greater than five

4. Composite Video Menu Output. One BNC connector is provided
for the menu output in composite video format. Use this connector
