I EC-201KC Assembly Manual CW Keyer
To install your keyer in the VEC-201 KC matching enclosure
follow these
i nstructions
(read all instructions before beginning... take your time):
1. Find the front panel decal and rear panel decal; separate using scissors. Be sure
to leave excess decal material around the edges. Put the rear panel decal on
first. This is done by: a.) Remove all debris and oil from the chassis. This
should be done using a piece of cloth and alcohol.
b.) Remove the crack and
peel to expose the adhesive. c.) Place the decal on the rear panel without
securing it completely. d.) Gently rub the alignment circles with your finger--if
the circles are centered in the enclosure holes (also check the comer alignment
marks) secure the decal by rubbing and removing all air bubbles. e.) If the
alignment circles are not centered, adjust the decal accordingly then secure.
f.) Use a penknife, or small Exacto(TM) knife, to cut away the unused edges (cut
from the adhesive side) and cut out the component holes (cut from the
description side). g.) Repeat this procedure for the front panel.
2. Next, install the two L-brackets on the chassis using two of the 3/16" screws.
The longer side of the L-bracket must be connected to the chassis using the two
holes centered on each edge of the enclosure. Refer to the diagram on the next
page for location and orientation.
3. Install the two 1/2" mounting screws next. Insert the screws, from the bottom,
through the four holes relatively close to each comer of the chassis.
4. Place the two 3/16" round spacers on the mounting screws.
5. Now insert the PC board. This must be done by: a.) Remove the nut and
washer from R 1 and R5. b.) Insert the front of the PC board at an angle so the
controls enter their respective holes. c.) Push down on the rear of the board.
Make sure the mounting screws align with the mounting holes in the PC board
before pushing.
b. Use the two hex nuts to secure the PC board.
Be certain all appropriate
components are centered with the enclosure holes before tightening.
Put the
washers and nuts--removed from R 1 and R5--back on and tighten.
7. Find the knobs and switch caps. Align the red switch cap with SW 1 and push it
on. If it is difficult to push on, then rotate it 90° and try again. Repeat for SW2
using the black switch cap. Now put the knobs on R1 and R5. You may need
to loosen the set screw. Align appropriately then tighten the set screws.
8. Locate the piece of double-sided tape. This is to be used for holding the 9-volt
battery clip in place. Locate a place on the underside of the top cover where the
battery will not interfere with any components. Peel off the backing of the tape
and stick it to the chosen location, then install the battery clip.
9. The top should be installed next.
Use the two remaining 3/16" screws for
securing the top to the L-brackets.
Make sure the L-brackets are aligned
properly.
10. Finally, place the four rubber feet on the bottom of the enclosure at the comers.
