Items in the KAT100 main parts bag (E850094), supplied with both KAT100-1 and -2.

Color codes and markings are shown in parentheses.

Reference designators from 101 up refer to Front Panel components. Refer to Appendix A of the K2 owner's manual for more parts photos.

Some

components in this kit can be damaged by static discharge. Before handling diodes, transistors, and ICs, touch a

grounded, unpainted metal surface, or use a wrist strap grounded through a 1 megohm resistor.
