The IC-A210/IC-A210E mates with a Card edge connector
in the rack mount. Assemble the Card edge connector as
follows.
D Card edge connector assembly
q Strip 4 mm (0.16") from each wire for the card edge
connector.
w Tin the leads of the wires.
e Pass the wires through a short length of 13 mm (0.5")
heat shrink tubing.
r Solder the leads to the contact terminals.
t Cover the soldered terminals with the heat shrink tubing,
and heat until it is fixed in place.
y Cover the unused terminals with the 10 mm (0.4") heat
shrink tubing, then heat it to prevent shorting.
