Locate the
Elevator Modules
Each elevator module is identifiable
by its four card edge connectors.
Identify the
Elevator Modules
EachelevatormoduleiseitherPrimary
or Secondary. They are identifiable
asfollows:
• PrimaryElevator:
written on inside top and denoted
by white card edge connectors
• SecondaryElevator:
written on inside bottom
Locate Additional
Modules
Gather any additional modules that
will be used to assemble your desired
Tower System configuration.
Identify the Primary and
Secondary Card Edges
Foreachmodule,thewordsPrimaryand
Secondary are written along the card
edges. The primary edge is also denoted
by a white stripe.
Plug in Primary
Card Edge
Match the white stripe on the edge of
each module to any available connector
onthePrimaryElevatorandplugitin.
Attach Secondary
