Installing the K3EXREF Board

Temporarily remove the coaxial cables at J2 and (if present) J1 on the KREF3 board. Handle the

connectors by the grip (see Figure 6). Do not pull on the black coaxial cable.

Figure 6. TMP Cable Connectors.

Carefully remove the mounting screw and washers holding the KREF3 board (see Figure 7). As you loosen

the screw tilt the top of the KREF3 board away from the front panel shield and look for a split lock washer
between the front panel shield and the KREF3 board. If present, remove it with your needle nose pliers.

Figure 7. Removing the KREF3 Hardware.

Check the K3EXREF board and, if not already present, install the shorting block across the center pins of

J1 (see Figure 8.)
