3.7 Connecting to the Remote Panel
If you plan on controlling the MPI-16 manually, you must use the Remote Panel to do so.
Begin by installing the Remote Panel in your instrument rack. It can be placed side-by-
side with other half-size or quarter-size rack-space equipment. Since it derives power
from its connection to the Pocket Indexer, no additional power supply is required.
With the Pocket Indexer unplugged, attach the male end of the provided DB-25 cable to
the MPI-16, and attach the female end of the cable to the Remote Panel.
If you are using the Remote Panel as well as a Deposition Controller, you must use the
same cable as you would normally use to connect the MPI-16 to your controller. The 25-
pin male jack on the Remote Panel is a pin-for-pin duplication of the I/O of the MPI-16
itself, but now runs through the Remote Panel’s Auto/Man. switch.
