4.3 Installing the MS-4 into the A-100 rack

To install MS-4 yourself, pay attention to the following notes:

● First of all, take the A-100 rack's mains plug out of the wall socket !
● Never using power supply delivery more as +12/-12Volts.
● Using the flat cable supplied with your MS-4.
● Check very carefully that the red wire of the flat cable is connected to the minus 12Volts on

the MS-4 and on the A-100 bus board (both sides).

● Failure to check this may result in the module’s instant destruction as soon as the power is

turned back on!

● The module has to be connected only to an A-100 bus board that is powered by a specified

A-100 power supply.

● For damaged modules that have been connected obviously in the wrong way to the bus

board the warranty is void !

● Place the module carefully into the space in the rack, and fasten it firmly in place with the

supplied screws and nylon washers. Put back any covers or blanking plates, and screw
them in firmly.

● Now plug the system A-100 back into the main power supply, and switch it on.
● Test out the newly installed MS-4.
● If it doesn’t seem to be working as expected, immediately disconnect the system from the

power supply again. In this case, double-check the connections, making completely sure
that the ribbon cable is the right way round where it connects to the module and the bus.
