Preparing for the FLEX-6300 ATU Installation
If the FLEX-6300 is powered on, power it off by pressing the Power Button and then remove DC power
from the radio. Disconnect all cables.
Use a flat, well-lighted surface such as a table or work bench to perform the ATU installation.
You may want to use several small containers to store and organize the chassis screws that will be
removed and re-installed as part of the ATU installation.
Make sure to observe basic ESD control procedures to prevent static discharges that may damage
sensitive electronics components inside the radio, such as grounding yourself to reduce static electrical
build up.
Removing the FLEX-6300 Chassis Cover
The FLEX-6300 chassis cover must be removed before installing the ATU assembly.
Removing the Front Side Cover and Top Cover Screws
Remove the 4-40 X ½” Front Side Cover TORX screw using the long portion of the “L” TORX wrench.
Retain the Front Side Cover TORX screw for re-installation. The image below shows the removal of the
right Front Side Cover TORX screw.
Repeat the previous procedure for removing the TORX front side cover screw on the left side of the FLEX-
6300, retaining the screws for re-installation.

After removing the Front Side Cover TORX screws, remove the two (2) 4-40 X ½” Front Top Cover TORX
screws using the long portion of the “L” TORX wrench. Retain the Front Top Cover TORX screws for re-
installation. The image below shows the removal of the left side Front Top Cover TORX screw; the right
side Front Top Cover TORX screw has been previously removed.
After removing the two Front Top Cover TORX screws, remove the two (2) 6-32 x 3/8” flat head Front Side
Cover Phillips screws using a #2 Phillips screwdriver (not provided). Retain the Front Side Cover Phillips
screws for re-installation. The image below shows the removal of the top right Front Side Cover Phillips
screw; the bottom right Front Side Cover Phillips screw has been previously removed.

Repeat the previous procedure for removing the Phillips Front Side Cover screws on the left side of the
FLEX-6300, retaining the screws for re-installation. Keep all removed screws from the previous de-
installation steps separate for re-installation marked as “long” screws. When complete, the FLEX-6300
should look like the image shown below.
Removing the Middle/Rear Side Cover and Rear Top Cover Screws
Remove all three (3) 4-40 X ¼”Middle and Rear Side Cover TORX screws located on the right side of the
FLEX-6300 using the long portion of the “L” TORX wrench. Repeat this procedure for removing the TORX
Middle and Rear Side Cover screw on the left side of the FLEX-6300, retaining all six (6) screws for re-
installation. The image below shows the removal of the right Middle and Rear Side Cover TORX screws.

screws for re-installation. (Image not provided).
Keep all removed screws from the previous de-installation steps separate for re-installation. These screws
are shorter than the previous set of screws removed from the FLEX-6300. When complete, the right side
of FLEX-6300 should look like the image shown below with the two sets of screws grouped separately.

Installing the FLEX-6300 ATU Assembly
Once the top cover has been removed, the ATU assembly can be installed.
Preparing the ATU Assembly
Locate the short (2.7” / 6.86 cm) RG-316 MCX cable assembly. Carefully insert one end of the mini RG-
316 Coax cable assembly into the gold MCX “snap on” connector labeled X2 on the ATU board by pressing

Installation of the ATU Assembly into the FLEX-6300
Carefully place the FLEX-6300 ATU assembly in the radio adjacent to the Filter board, aligning up the
copper ringed screw “thru” holes on the ATU board with the female mounting holes (threaded spacers)
on the metal Filter board RF shield. Note that the hole on the center right hand side of the ATU assembly
that does not have a copper ring should have the existing Phillips head screw centered in it when the ATU
assembly is properly seated. Refer to the image below of the ATU assembly being seated in the FLEX-
6300.
Once the ATU assembly is properly seated, very loosely install one (1) M3 x 6mm Phillips head screw using
a #2 Phillips screwdriver in the bottom right hand corner mounting hole (facing the front of the FLEX-
6300) as shown below. Do not tighten the screw at this time.
