 +===== Connection with GCA145 =====
 +
 +
 +**
 +IMPORTANT NOTE !!!!!!
 +Some users seem to know better, and solder wires directly to the pins or the pc-board.!\\
 +That is totally unacceptable !!\\
 +Wires will easily break off, and cause a lot of damage in many cases.\\
 +So use connectors !!!!!\\
 +**
 +
 +This cable is a straight connection, 8 wires, so pin1 to pin1, pin2 to pin2, etc.\\
 +Two connectors PSK 254/8W are used with 16 PSK Pins.\\
 +This special plier will be sold for net price of € 20,00 if ordered together with complete kits. {{:mgv:hardware:crimpzange.jpg?200}}\\
