Figure A. iCon Receiver with two 160 pin
QuadraPaddle modules. Each module is
loaded with twin female contacts, Part #
610 138 100. Each module has twin male
headers connecting the female contacts to
the PCB plated thru holes.
Figure B. A PCB can be mounted directly to the back of the iCon receiver; however,
VPC recommends mounting the i1 receiver to a panel and then mounting the PCB to
the other side of the panel using stand-offs, as shown. This will reduce the stress on
the PCB when the i1 is mated and un-mated.

Figure C. Additional hole cutouts shown allow access to the module mounting screws. The user can remove the PCB and modules
without de-soldering the individual solder tails. Additional clearance holes allow frame mounting screws to protrude without interfering
with PCB.
