MOLEX CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY
The IC-A200 mates with a Molex connector in the rack
mount. Assemble the Molex connector as follows.
.
Contact terminal assembly
1) Strip 4 mm (0.16 in) from each wire for the contact
terminal.
2) Open the HTR-6115 Molex hand crimper with the
engraved side toward you.
3) Insert the stripped conductor until the insulation is
even with the side of the crimper facing you.
4) Clip the conductor tab until a crimp is obtained.
5) Move the lead to the crimper anvil.
6) Place the insulating tab section on the crimper anvil.
7) Crimp again until a sufficient crimp is obtained.
.
Contact insertion
Insert the contact terminals into the proper location in
the connector housing. Push the terminal until a click is
heard.
.
Polarizing key
Before installing the Molex connector into the mounting
rack, check the polarizing key position between contacts
8 and 9. Refer to Connector front view in WIRING at left.
.
Contact extraction
Use the Molex contact ejector tool.
1) Slip the flat narrow blade of the contact ejector tool
under the contact on the mating side of the connec-
tor.
2) Turn the connector upside down to slide the blade
into the stop.
3) When the blade is fully in, pull the lead using
moderate pressure.
4) Before reinstalling, make sure the tab extends as
in the figure below.
COAXIAL CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY
1) Strip the RG-58 coaxial cable. Soft solder the shield
and center conductor independently.

OPERATION CHECK
Check the following points after transceiver installation.
- Polarity of the power supply.
-
NOinterference causedto otherequipment.
- NO noise or interference from other equipment.
- VSWR is less than 3 : 1.
- Communication capability on both the highest and
lowest communication frequency, if possible.
