Installing the Auxiliary KSYN3A Synthesizer
Remove the KSYN3A board from its ESD protective packaging. Inspect the back of the board for long
leads, especially those associated with the mini-connector and U8 near the top of the board. Carefully trim these
leads flush with the board as shown in Figure 25.
Figure 25. Checking and Trimming the Synthesizer Leads
CAUTION
The objective of trimming any long leads is to be certain no bare leads touch the front
panel shield when the board is installed in the next step. Do not add spacers or insulating
material between the board and the front panel shield. It is important for proper
shielding of the circuits that the board sits very close to the front panel shield.
