As the door is latched, the Door Latch cam rotates the Door Latch Sensor CCW, allowing the B+ wire to

On its return, its lug pushes the Dark Slide Link to the right (Figure 2-7), out of the way, allowing the
Power Actuator assembly to pivot CCW back down again. This allows VER to break contact with B+,
turning off power, and to contact GND again.
Note: With an erected camera, the Dark Slide Link/Power
Actuator are not needed for darkslide power. Instead,
the Erect Link and Erect Sensor, described later, open
VER to GND, and close VER to B+.)
