Only one CSN/Relay card can be used in a ChartScan system.  Attempts to install the
CSN/Relay card in a slot other than slot #1 of ChartScan’s main unit can cause equipment
damage.
The CSN/Relay card, if used, must be installed in the bottom slot of the main unit.  Aside
from this requirement, cards may be installed in any slot.
1.   Ensure ChartScan is powered down and not connected to any power source.
2.   With channel labels oriented upright, carefully slide the card into the unit, and along the card
support grooves.  Gently force the card to engage its edge connector with ChartScan’s internal
mating connector.
3.   Tighten the external screws snug, at each end of the card.
d)  Install IEEE 488 Interface Communications Card (option)
If you ordered an optional IEEE 488 Interface Card (CSN14/488), please refer to the
IEEE 488 Configuration (Option) section of Chapter 3 for installation instructions.
e)  Connect Expansion Chassis (option)
If you ordered a expansion chassis (CSN/Exp), please refer to the Expansion Chassis, CSN/Exp
(Option)
 section of Chapter 3 for installation instructions.
4.  Connect ChartScan to Your Computer
Reference Note:  ChartScan is default configured for serial port connection to a PC.  For
IEEE 488 connection, please refer to the Chapter 3 section, IEEE 488 Configuration (Option).
Reference Note:  For ethernet operation refer to the Net232 User’s Guide, p/n 1037-0901.
Use a CA-47 cable (or equivalent) to connect the ChartScan to your computer.  The ChartScan end of
the CA-47 cable has a DB-9P connector, while the computer end has 2 connectors (DB9 and DB25).
Other crossover-type cables can be used if wired as shown in the following figure.
