SERVICE & INSTALLATION MANUAL for Cafection's Encore Lite

9.4 

Main Board

Like any electronic main board, the one in this brewer is very sensitive to power surges inside 
buildings. If an issue persists after changing the main board, verify the power source. Use the 
necessary precautions for handling static sensitive devices.

Removing

1.  Retrieve all the brewer's data (see section 6.6.2).

2.  Turn off the machine and unplug it from the outlet.

3.  Open the door and remove the protection panel (inside the 

door) by unscrewing the four (4) screws.

4.  Unplug the connections (clockwise from the top left corner):

MDB Port

 J11 (if coin changer, bill acceptor or card reader)

Main board

: J12, J18, J27, J2, J19, J3, J6, J14, J21, J22

5.  Unscrew the four (4) plastic 1" posts.

6.  Remove the board.

Reinstalling

1.  Reinstall the board and fasten it with the four (4) plastic 1" posts.

2.  Plug the connections (refer to the board diagram in section 3.6 for a full-size view).

3.  Verify that all connections are in place. The board will fail if the connections are reversed or in 

the wrong place.

4.  Reinstall all parts in reverse order. Reinstall the protection panel with the four (4) screws.

5.  Plug in the brewer and turn it on.

6.  Verify that everything all is functioning on the screen.

All cables must be replaced in the correct order and direction before turning the 

power on, or the board will fail and be damaged.
