. The sections
should be read in sequence.
The
Basic Installation
section describes the mechanical installation of the MintDrive
II
, the
power supply connections and motor connections. The other sections require knowledge of
the low level input/output requirements of the installation and an understanding of computer
software installation. If you are not qualified in these areas you should seek assistance before
proceeding.
