Configuration
The figure shows the WBK16 board layout for locating user-accessible components. You may need to refer
to this figure to locate components referenced in the text. The jumper positions are not user functions, and
are only shown for reference in case they are dislodged.

CAUTION
Be careful to avoid component damage while WBK16 enclosure is open. Always
remove bridge completion headers (CN-115) from the unit before soldering resistors
in the headers.
WBK16 Fan
A fan draws air through enclosure vents and exhausts it through the bottom of the
WBK16. To maintain sufficient cooling, it is important to keep the fan and vents free
of obstruction.
Note: The partial blocking of vents by splice plates (in stacked assemblies) does not
jeopardize unit cooling.
