I encountered a problem when building KAT2. I'm in page 7 in revision D
manual.
The fifth step says:
"Install the two 16-pin female connectors, J4 and J5, on the top of
the Control board... Make sure the connectors are
perpendicular to the board"
To put in words J4 cannot be installed perpendicular to the board. C60
and C45 are so thick. They both are installed very near to U1 socket. I
cannot move them any closer to U1. The angle between J4 and J5 is
several degrees when looking connectors from end view. I don't know is
it safe to go on and let the 4-40 screws to solve the problem by
cracking J4, C60 or C45.
