Argo Navis wiring

[jim_bones (James)]

Hi all,

Last night I couldn't get AN to align and this morning I think I found the culprit: The yellow and black wires on the ALT encoder have come loose (see attached image).

I am assuming that the yellow cable goes back into slot 2 (Index) and not 1 (Ground)? My other question is how to lock the cable in place on the blue plastic bit?

Many thanks!

- Jim.

Hello Jim,

No, that wire is connected to the ground. The index signal is not used. The wire is held by friction - you just need to push it into the slot with some thin piece of plastic if you don't have a special tool.

Hi Serge,

Many thanks for your help - I'm glad I checked first! I hope this fixes the problem with AN.

Cheers,

Jim.
