K2 backlight orientation

Denis Jackson-2
Hi chaps,

Just building the front panel board on my k2 ser. 6160.  

All was going swimmingly until I came to fit the backlight.  The pins of the diodes on the backlight are labled A and K and the board has + and - indicated for each.  I would assume that "k" on the backlight should go into the "+" hole on the board.  Before I do what seems logical, I'm hoping somone can confirm.

Thanks

Denis

Denis,

Not to worrk about how it is marked - it is reversible, so if it mounts
on the board at all, it will be correct. - you cannot get it wrong.

That should have been 'worry' instead of 'worrk' - sorry folks.  73, Don
