FB3 Differential board fitting

[norty303]

So, I've finally gotten around to fitting the differential board to my FB3 - only I can't quite work out where it goes!

It looks as if the only place it fits is on the connector where the DB25 goes, but it has another black connector the other end with 2 pins that don't seem to match up with a corresponding socket.

Can anyone assist?

The differential board essentially has only one "male" connector. You plug that connector onto the normal ILDA output on the FB3. Then you will see two pins. Those two pins will fit over two capacitors. You must solder the pins to the capacitors. That's how the differential board gets it's power.

The other connector on the differential board is a "female" connector, and that's where you get your ILDA output with differential signaling.

i didnt even know you could get a differential board for olf FB3's?

Thanks bill, I had offered up the board to the obvious place, but those 2 pins had me confused - I could see they lined up with the caps but thought I must have it all wrong!
