2. FPC removal
Rotate the actuator upward, and then pull the
FPC out by using the alignment tabs as a guide.
The FPC should be removed at a 10 degree
angle to the PCB surface.
1
Insert the FPC into the connector with the
conductive traces facing down.
There is an FPC alignment tab that requires FPC
to be inserted at an angle of about 10 degrees
with respect to PCB surface and perpendicular to
the connector. The FPC should be inserted firmly
all the way to the back.
2
Rotate the actuator downward.
If the FPC has not been fully inserted or is
extremely skewed, disengage the FPC and follow
the directions described in 2- “FPC Removal”
and then repeat the operations from 1- . Always
make sure that the FPC is secured prior to locking
the actuator.
