Connections
The test cable should be prepared using the information
shown in Figure 4-l. The center conductor
of the unter-
minated end of one trim cable should be connected to pin
1 of the relay test connector, while the inner shield should
be connected to pin 2. The outer shield should be cut off
and be left floating
at the test connector end.

Figure 4-1. Test Cable Preparation
The remaining
triax cable should be connected as follows:
connect the center conductor to pin 6, and connect the in-
ner shield to pin 5. Again, the outer shield should be left
floating.
Also, jumper pins 5 and 6 of the relay test con-
nector together.
Figure 4-2 shows how to connect the prepared test cable
to the Model 7072. Connect the first triax cable to row A
of the card, and connect the second triax cable to row B.
Also be sure to connect the test connector to the RELAY
TEST jack on the rear panel of the Model 707.
