First, identify the electronics cabinets.  These cabinets (towers) are shown in Figure

2-2 (and in Figure 2-1 with shaded lines).  The towers look nearly identical, with a

translucent panel and a power switch near the middle-front of each cabinet.  Tower #1

can be identified by two black cartridge drives installed near the top-front of its cabinet.

Tower #1 is also referred to as the “right 4-node” tower; tower #2 as the “left 4-node”

tower.

2. Do not place Color Monitors closer than 12” to each other.

3. Using Figures 2-1 and 2-2 as examples, place the towers in position, parallel to each

other.  The printer must be positioned near tower #1 for connection to US #1. but

within the 6 foot length of the printer cable.  Put the towers within 84 cm (33″) apart

(unless you have the optional 10 meter cable).  Make sure both towers sit firmly on

level flooring

Remove the rear center-section cover of both towers by removing four M5 flat-head

screws, exposing the I/O boards as shown in Figure 2-3.  The cards seen in Figure 2-3

are a typical example for Tower #1.  Note some connectors are not used and are only

outlined in Figure 2-3.  The cables from these card connectors to the transition panels,

shown in Figure 2-5. will have been installed at the factory.

Note there are two TP485 cards, in slots 1 and 9.  The TP485 in slot 9 of each tower

provides the TPLCN interface.  The TP485 in slot 1 in each tower provides the

connection, at J3 (see Figure 2-4), and interface for thermocouples that sense the

module’s temperature (non-EC Compliant modules only)

The standard cabling connections you will make in the following steps are on the

transition panels in Figure 2-5.  Note there are two exposed transition panels—one at

the top of the center section and another at the bottom (see Figure 2-5).  The panel has

connectors and cable clamps on it that will be used to secure cables you will install.

Both towers have the same locations for specific connector/clamp brackets but the

bracket types in certain locations may differ depending on the options installed.
