Front Panel Access
The front panel of the Medalist i1000 provides access to the power
switches and cards in the testhead. The front panel can also be removed
when servicing is required.
•Opening the Front Panel
•Removing the Front Panel
•Replacing the Front Panel
Opening the Front Panel
1The front panel has two recessed handles, one on each side of the
panel. Push the bottom of the handle on the front panel as shown in
Figure 1 and rotate the handle out from its recessed position. Do the
same on the other side of the front panel.
2Latches on the inside of the front panel secures the panel in place. You
have to open the side panel to reach and unfasten the latch (Figure 2).
Do the same on the other side of the test station.

3Hold the handles of the front panel and pull towards you. The front
panel opens from the top and is supported by two cables when fully
open (Figure 3).
With the door in this position, you will be able to access the power
switches and replace any cards.
Removing the Front Panel
If the front panel needs to be removed, continue with the following steps.
1Support the front panel while you loosen the screws that secure the
supporting cables to the test station (Figure 4). Then unhook the cables
from the screws.
2Once the supporting cables are released, use the handles to lift the
front panel upwards and away from the test station.

Replacing the Front Panel
Follow these steps to replace the front panel:
1There are two pins at the bottom of the front panel. Fit the pins into
the corresponding holes at the bottom front edge of the test station
(Figure 5).
2Support the front panel while you loop the supporting cables over the
screws (Figure 3). Tighten the screws to secure the cables.
3Close the front panel.
4Open the side panels and secure the latches on the inside of the front
panel.

Preparing the Power Cord
To assemble the power cord, follow these steps:
1Locate the power connector provided (Figure 8).
2Loosen the two screws holding the cable retainer at the back of the
power connector. Then unscrew the black connector insert to separate
it from the metal casing (Figure 9).
WARNING The Medalist i1000 is shipped without a power cord. This allows local support
engineers to purchase a power cord that is suitable for use in the facility
where the system is installed and meets the regulatory requirements of the
country.
Be sure to purchase a power cord rated to operate at 200~240 VAC and
10 Amps, with a minimum length of 2.5 m.

3Strip the insulation of the power cord to expose the wires. Insert the
power cord through the metal casing of the power connector
(Figure 10).
4Solder the wires to the correct terminals on the connector insert. The
terminals are numbered as shown in Figure 11.
Figure 10 Strip power cord and insert in connector
WARNING Ensure the wires are connected to the correct terminals as shown in
Figure 11. Otherwise the system could be damaged.

5Screw the connector insert back into the metal casing. Also replace and
fasten the cable retainer to hold the power cord in place (Figure 12).
CAUTION Ensure that the retainer holds the power cord securely to prevent any movement
that may break the solder connections of the wires to the terminals in the
connector.
