Install the two battery holders as shown in Figure 46. Orient the holders and route the wires as shown.
Press down on the holder while starting each screw and be sure you hold the screw vertically so it does not
damage the first threads in the standoff beneath the RF board. It is normal for the screws to press against the
sides of the battery holders.
CAUTION! Be certain the battery holders are installed so the wires are as shown
below with the shrink-wrapped splices well clear of the multi-pin connector. It may be
possible to reverse the holders so shrink-wrapped splices are jammed against the multipin
connector. That would cause the splice to fail or break the insulation on the wires and cause
a short circuit.
