Procedure 4: Connect SmartBits to PC, Power, and LAN
This procedure explains how to connect the back panel connectors on your SmartBits
chassis. We recommend that you complete Procedures 4 through 10 before you connect to
an application or device under test (Procedures 11/12).
The back panel connectors of the SmartBits 600x/6000x chassis are identical. The chassis
differ only in the location of the power supply connector and the ON/OFF switch.
Figure 2-1 shows the back panel on a SmartBits 6000C chassis.
