the equipment, or injury to personnel.
It is understood that safety rules within
individual companies vary. If a conflict
exists between the material contained
in this guide and the rules of a company
using this system, the more stringent
rules should take precedence.
IK 5000 Connections
Some connections are made directly to
the IK 5000 PC card connector, others
are made to flyouts near the card.The
preceding page shows an example
of card and flyout connectors at the
rear of an IK 5000 system. Connector
configurations for all standard IK 5000
systems are also shown. Certain
connectors are common to multiple
IK 5000 products, others are unique to
specific systems in the IK 5000 product
family. Connector pin wiring is shown at
