The following is a listing of precautionary notes that should be noted and followed for optimal equipment operation.
• Never probe a contact without using a mating patchcord as a test lead.
• Never forcefully engage a system if there is an excessive amount of resistance.
• Never allow an ITA to drop as this may cause misaligned engagement and/or irreparable damage.
• Always insert and extract a contact insertion/extraction tool in line with the contact. Never apply pressure to the side as this may break either contact or
tool. This also applies to forming and enlarging tools.
• It is advisable that power to the interface system be disconnected prior to handling and maintenance.
• Caution should always be used when engaging, making sure that all foreign objects are removed from the system.
• To prevent equipment damage caused by inadvertent contact being made with the system when not in use; such as bumping into the receiver/ITA
assembly with a box, chair or electronic equipment; for example, using ITA and receiver protective covers is highly recommended.
PRECAUTIONARY NOTES
FORCEFUL ENGAGEMENT OF THE ITA AND RECEIVER MAY RESULT IN
SERIOUS DAMAGE TO MULTIPLE PARTS OF THE SYSTEM (MODULES,
RECEIVER, ITA AND CONTACTS).
IN THE EVENT OF OPERATIONAL DIFFICULTIES, A TRAINED VPC
TECHNICIAN SHOULD BE NOTIFIED TO AVOID ANY POTENTIAL
DAMAGE TO THE SYSTEM FROM IMPROPER HANDLING.

NOTE: Due to the weight of the VHMF (approx 15 lbs.) versus the receiver
(approx. 3 lbs.), it is recommended that the VHMF is attached to the test rack
first, followed by the receiver to the VHMF.
INSTALLATION
1. Determine an appropriate location on the rack to mount the VHMF and
receiver. Keep in mind that the cables connecting to the receiver need to
be long enough to allow the VHMF to hinge down.
2. Attach the VHMF to the rack in the desired location using the (8) 10-32 x 1”
mounting screws (Figure A). Tighten screws in a cross pattern to ensure
even torque is applied.
3. Using the 6 receiver mounting holes on the front of the Vertical Hinged
Mounting Frame (VHMF), attach the receiver with the 10-32 x 1” captive
screws, lock washers, and hex nuts included with the Receiver (Figure B).
4. When not in use, ensure that the receiver handle is closed (upward

DETERMINE SLIDE KIT LENGTH
1. The slide kit should be chosen based on the distance from rail to rail inside the
rack. Measure dimension A to determine the proper slide kit length, ensuring
the slide length does not exceed dimensions A + B (Figure B).
SLIDE INSTALLATION
1. The height and weight of the 9050 and 9050TR require the use of 2 sets of
slides for full support. Determine the desired approximate rack location
to mount receiver and platform. The 9050TR (p/n 310104369) includes 2
instrument brackets, one for each tier, that can support a test chassis for
close proximity access (Figure A). Keep in mind when selecting a receiver
location that any system cables will need to be long enough to connect to
instrumentation and allow for slides to fully extend without putting tension
on the cables.
2. Install both sets of slides using manufacturer’s instructions (included with
slide packaging or online at accuride.com). A distance of 9.870 [250.70] is
required from the top rear screw hole of the top set of slides to the top rear
screw hole of the bottom set of slides (Figure C).
3. Make sure to horizontally match the location of the rack mounting holes
used for each tier of slides. Do not fully tighten down the 4 front and 4 rear
mounting screws at this time, on each tier of slides (Figure D).
Figure A. Each set of slides supports an instrument bracket (shelf)
for easy test chassis access.

ALWAYS SUPPORT THE RECEIVER AND PLATFORM
WITH THE MOST ROBUST (MIDDLE) SECTION OF THE
SLIDES.
4. Remove the innermost section of each slide by extending the slides
fully, depressing the blue tab, and continuing to extend the inner
sections of each slide until it is free from the slide assembly (Figure E).
5. Install the included instrument brackets. The shorter bracket is to
be installed for use with the top tier of slides and the longer on the
bottom. To install, follow the instrument bracket instructions also in
this User Manual.
9050TR INSTALLATION
1. Install inner slides back into slide kit in the rack.
2. Attach the platform mounting flanges to the inner slide rails on the
bottom tier using (6) 8-32 button head screws provided with the
receiver (Figure F). Do not fully tighten the screws.
3. Attach the receiver mounting flanges to the top tier slides also using
(6) 8-32 button head screws. Ensure that the mounting surface
portion of the flange is directed outward as viewed from the front
(Figure F). Do not fully tighten the screws.
4. Install the 9050TR platform/receiver onto the platform mounting
flanges with (6) 8-32 screws (Figures E and F). Do not fully tighten the
screws.
5. Install the receiver mounting flanges on the top tier slides, to the back
of the receiver using the (4) receiver rack mounting screws provided.
6. Pull the platform/receiver out as far as possible. The slides will lock
in position. Push the blue tabs located on the middle section of the
slides. Apply pressure to push the receiver back in toward the rack.
The smaller inner slides will move into the middle section, which
should not move. Push receiver until it backs against the rack.
7. During regular use of the 9050TR, when not extended away from the
rack on the slides, the user should secure the receiver to the rack.
This prevents the unit from uncontrolled slide motion. To ensure the
receiver is correctly aligned with mounting hole locations on the test
rack, temporarily fasten the receiver to the rack using its captive 10-
32 screws. Be sure to provide support beneath the platform, liing it
slightly to ensure an even screw engagement.
8. Now, complete installation by fully tightening the previously installed
screws in this order:
1. 8-32 receiver mounting screws .
2. 8-32 button head platform mounting flange screws (Figure F).
3. Front slide mounting screws (from slide mounting procedures).
4. Rear slide mounting screws (from slide mounting procedures).
9. The receiver may now be unscrewed from the rack and moved out
from the rack on the slides, if desired.

Prior to engaging an ITA with the receiver for the first time, ensure all modules (ITA and receiver) are properly installed. This includes inspection of modules to
ensure proper mounting and to verify module positioning. Modules must be installed so that Pin 1 of each respective mating receiver and ITA module pair are
adjacent. VPC recommends that Pin 1 be positioned to the le in the receiver and ITA frames. All ITA modules must match the respective receiver modules. It is
crucial for all modules to be installed properly.
ENGAGEMENT
1. The receiver should be checked for any foreign objects that may interfere with engagement.
2. Aer inspection, the ITA is ready for engagement with the receiver. The ITA may be placed onto the receiver platform and properly positioned relative to the
receiver guide pins. Ensure that the ITA roller bearings are aligned with the receiver slide openings when the receiver handle is in the open position.
3. Carefully rotate the handle forward to actuate the receiver slide engagement mechanisms, which will draw the ITA into engagement position with the
receiver. Once the handle reaches a positive stop at the end of its travel and latches into place, the modules are engaged.
4. Upon completing use of the ITA, rotate the receiver handle to the open position, remove the ITA, reinstall the receiver protective cover and rotate the handle
to the closed position.
5. Always protect the contacts when the system is not in use. The receiver contacts are protected when either the ITA or receiver protective cover is engaged.
VPC recommends use of both receiver and ITA protective covers to avoid potential contact damage.

ITA will not properly engage with receiver.
ITA is possibly out of alignment or module are mismatched.
• Remove and inspect the ITA for proper alignment.
• Check for foreign objects/tools obstructing mating.
• Inspect module configuration. Ensure ITA module placement and type match that of each receiver module.
• Inspect for any bent or incorrectly placed pins.
• Verify the orientation of the receiver and ITA modules.
Excessive force is needed to engage the handle.
(Typical contact load- approximately 35 lbs. force)
ITA is possibly out of alignment or module are mismatched.
• See above troubleshooting steps
ITA will not engage with the receiver aer attempting above troubleshooting steps.
Contact VPC – unauthorized user adjustments to the system will void the warranty.
No continuity upon engagement.
• When replacing an ITA contact, the mating contact on the receiver side should also be inspected and replaced if necessary.
• Check wiring and replace if necessary.
• Contact not secured in module.
• Contact damage. Visually inspect all contacts for damage to potentially isolate damaged pin prior to checking for continuity with a multi-meter.
A “short ” in the wiring upon engagement.
• Damaged contact(s) may cause high resistance. Upon replacing a contact in the ITA, the mating contact on the receiver side should also be inspected and
replaced, if necessary.
• Check wiring and replace, if necessary.
Receiver and ITA will not disengage.
Engagement mechanism within the receiver may be faulty.
Contact VPC – unauthorized user adjustments to the system will void the warranty.
