Attach the Wedge

Attach the wedge to your computer.

1. Slide the wedge into the slot on the bottom of the cable’s electronics pod as

shown below.

ATTENTION

We recommend that you attach the wedge that is provided
with your cable to the computer. This wedge provides strain
relief for the cable and secures the cable to the computer so
the cable is not accidently disconnected. If you do not use the
wedge and the cable disconnects, it can damage the connector
on the cable and PCMK card.

ATTENTION

On some laptop computers, the PCMCIA slot positioned so
that mounting the electronics pod will not allow the cable
connector to reach the PCMK card. For alternative cable strain
relief options, visit http://support.rockwellautomation.com
and click the Knowledgebase link. In the Keyword area,
search for cable strain relief.
