Connecting the MSD and the GC
1 Verify that the GC power is turned off.
2 Connect the two ends of the GC/MSD interface cable as shown in Figure 8.
3 Carefully position the MSD close to the GC as shown in Figure 8.
When positioned properly, the end of the GC/MSD interface cover will
touch the metal of the oven wall, and the end of the interface will protrude
into the GC oven. The sides of the GC and MSD should be parallel. Note that
the end of the interface on a CI MSD will not protrude quite as far into the
GC oven as that on an EI MSD.
4 Connect a remote cable between the MSD and one of the remote connectors
on the back of the GC.
5 Connect the MSD power cord to an appropriate AC outlet.
