All associated cablesThis includes all cables going from the computer to
the control box(es) and from the control boxes to the RSM. Send PMT cables for testing and
possible upgrade of cable connectors. Do NOT send computer power cords or keyboard cable.
Older RSM systems use BNC and mini-hex
connectors; newer RSM systems use lemo cables and connectors.
To disconnect BNC connectors (shown below), grasp
the base and push in while twisting connector to the left. Pull connector to remove.

Lemo cables/connectors are now used on RSM PMTs. Note that the contiguous edges of the PMT assembly and connector are flush. With one hand,
grasp PMT assembly; with the other hand, grasp connector. Unlock the connector by pulling
back on the outer cylinder of the connector with your thumb and forefinger till a small
gap appears between the outer cylinder and the end of the PMT. Continue to pull until
connector disengages.
