3.5.6 Connecting a Thin-Net Segment to a SPIM-C

To connect a thin-net segment to a SPIM-C:
1. Set the Internal Termination Switch (see Figure 3-14), located to
the left of the port and labeled TERM., to:
• The on position (•) if the thin-net segment will be internally
terminated at the port.
• The off position (o) if the thin-net segment will not be
terminated at the port.
2. If the Internal Termination switch is in the On position, connect
the thin-net segment directly to the BNC port.
3. If the Internal Termination switch is in the Off position:
a. Attach a BNC tee-connector to the BNC port on the module.
b. Attach the thin-net segment (1) to one of the female
connectors on the tee-connector.
NOTE: Each segment attached to the tee-connector must be
terminated. If a segment is not attached to one of the female
connections on the tee-connector, then a terminator must be placed
on that connection.
c. Attach another thin-coax segment or a terminator to the other
female connector on the tee-connector.
