VEC-1290K Instruction Manual

AM Radio Transmitter

Vectronics has designed a matching enclosure just for your VEC-1290K AM
Radio Transmitter Kit. The matching enclosure is an all metal box which
includes knobs, hardware, decals, and rubber feet. Model: VEC-1290KC.

To install your receiver in the VEC-1290KC matching enclosure follow these
instructions (read all instructions before beginning ... take your time):

1. Find the front panel decal and rear panel decal; separate using scissors. Put

the rear panel decal on first. This is done by: a.) Remove all debris and oil
from the chassis. b.) Remove the crack and peel to expose the adhesive.
c.) Place the decal on the rear panel without securing it completely. d.)
Gently rub the alignment circles with your finger--if the circles are
centered in the enclosure holes (also check the corner alignment marks)
secure the decal by rubbing and removing all air bubbles. e.) If the
alignment circles are not centered, adjust the decal accordingly then
secure. f.) Use a penknife, or small Exact6m knife, to cut away the unused
edges and cut out the component holes. g.) Repeat this procedure for the
front panel

2. Next, install the two L-brackets on the chassis using two of the 3/16"

screws. The longer side of the L-bracket must be connected to the chassis
using the two holes centered on each edge of the enclosure. Refer to the
diagram on the next page for location and orientation.

3. Install the four 1/2" mounting screws next. Insert the screws, from the

bottom, through the four holes relatively close to each corner of the
chassis.

4. Placethe four 3/16" round spacers on the mounting

5. Now insert the PC board. This must be done by: a.) inserting the front of

the PC board at an angle, b.) then push down on the rear of the board.
Make sure the mounting screws align with the mounting holes in the PC
board before pushing.

6. Use the four hex nuts to secure the PC board. Be certain all appropriate

components are centered with the enclosure holes before tightening.

7. Find the switch cap. Align the switch cap with SWl and push it on. If it is

difficult to push on, then rotate it 90° and try again.

8. The top should now be installed. Use the two remaining 3/16" screws for

securing the top to the L-brackets.

9. Place the four rubber feet on the bottom of the enclosure at the
comers.
