VersaView 6300B Box PCs and 6300T Box Thin Clients Installation Instructions

Install the Factory-supplied DC Power Connector Assembly

For 6300B-BMAx and 6300B-BMBx Box PCs, and 6300T-BAx1 Box Thin Clients

This connector assembly provides strain relief for the DC power wires by reducing their movement. To assemble and attach the connector assembly, perform the following steps.

1.

Remove the DC terminal block from the computer chassis.

2.

Open the power connector assembly kit that ships with the computer (A).

3.

Insert the cable tie through the slots of the appropriate connector half (B).

4.

Strip the end of each DC power wire to the length in 

Figure 2

.

5.

Insert each stripped end into the DC terminal block as shown in 

Figure 2

.

Figure 2 - DC Terminal Block Connection Specifications

6.

Tighten the screws on top of the terminal block to secure the DC power wires to the torque value in 

Figure 2

.

7.

Slide the connector half with the attached tie onto the end of the DC terminal block (C).

8.

Tighten the cable tie so it is snug against the terminal wires. 

9.

Use cutting pliers to cut the excess part of the cable tie (D).

10. Install the white label supplied with the kit (E).

11.

Align and install the other connector clamp half to complete the assembly (F).

12. Reconnect the DC terminal block with the connector assembly to the computer chassis. 

Torque the DC terminal block flange screws to the values in 

Figure 2

.

13. Proceed to 

Connect DC Power on page 6

.

IMPORTANT

The DC terminal block in the photos is only for illustrative purposes. Your DC terminal block can differ in size, shape, and color to 

what is shown in the photos.

The white label can be used for identification or other information.

When installed correctly, both tabs of the clamp half lock into place.
