C.1 External Connections
The external connections for the 7 downlink option are slightly different than the standard
SMS-758.
Make sure the rear panel sticker supplied with this appendix has been properly installed.
The only connectors that are different are J7 through J16, the downlink inputs, and backup
demod outputs.
Table 2-1 lists the connectors for the 7 downlink option operation. All other connectors are
the same as described in Chapter 2 of the manual.
The use of each of these connectors is described in the following paragraphs.
