Installation - ISS with External SIM

Procedure 6. Connect Sensor Cables to the New SIM.

The ISS sensors are connected by cables to the Sensor Interface Module (SIM),
located inside the new SIM housing. The SIM contains electronics that measure
and store weather values for transmission to the console via cable or radio. The
SIM housing protects the SIM from the elements and provides easy access to
SIM cable connections.
