4a. FIT THE SYS-LINK CIRCUIT ASSEMBLY GL2 DIAGRAM1
Unplug and remove the existing console IDC ribbon harness.
Cut out a section of the earth busbar between stereo channels 11/12 and 13/14 leaving about 3mm
at each end.
Remove the 4x screwlocks from the front of the SYS-LINK D-connectors. Keep these to secure
the connectors after the base is refitted.
Remove the 2x M3x6mm screws from the end of the SYS-LINK assembly spacers.

5a. SOLDER ON THE SYS-LINK WIRE HARNESS GL2 DIAGRAM 2
Lay the harness above the faders positioning each branch in place against the Group and Master
circuitassemblies.
SolderthepreparedendsoftheharnesswirestotheircorrespondingsquaresolderpadsontheGroup
assemblies. This may be done with the assemblies in place by carefully using a fine-tipped
soldering iron. Make sure the wiring pads are tinned with fresh solder first for good joints. The
suggested order is :
Group Assembly1 Pink wire, then Blue, Red, Yellow
Group Assembly 2 Pink,Blue, Red,Yellow
Lift the Master Assembly slightly from the panel to gain access to the wiring pads. Do this by
removingthemastercontrolknobs,potentiometernutsandchromejacksocketnut. Desolderthe
earth busbar from the Master assembly.
Solder the harness wires to the wiring pads on the Master Assembly as illustrated. the suggested
order is : Master Assembly Pink, Blue, Red, Yellow, Brown, Grey
Refit the Master assembly. Make sure that the jack washers, potentiometers and meter LEDs are
correctly positioned in the panel cutouts. Replace the control nuts and knobs.
Resolder the earth busbar to the Master Assembly.
