Installing Cascade Bridges
Before you interconnect two KMV-3901/3911 cards by using the cascade bridge (Miranda
part no. KMV-3901-8XN-BRIDGE), make sure the cards are placed in locations adjacent to
one another inside the Densité frame, and firmly seated into their respective slot. It is not
necessary to switch off the frame’s power when installing or removing a cascade bridge.
To install a cascade bridge:
1 Facing the front of the Densité frame where your KMV-3901/3911 cards are installed,
hold the cascade bridge so that you can read the text normally:
2 Align the bridge’s connectors with the matching connectors on the front edge of the
two cards you wish to associate, and then press gently until the connectors are
properly seated:
IMPORTANT
Precautions should be taken to avoid electrostatic discharges
The cascade bridge connects directly to static-sensitive components on the
KMV-3901/3911. Miranda recommends using static-control measures, such
as a properly-grounded wrist strap, or conductive footwear and flooring,
while you handle cascade bridges.
