SERVICING
FIELD SERVICE:
For Experienced Technicians
Disconnect all power and data connections. Remove the
5 face plate mounting screws on the PCB side. Use only
direct replacement parts and use static discharge
precautions.
To replace an IC, using a small flat screwdriver carefully
remove the IC by gently lifting up between the socket and
the IC keeping the IC as flat as possible. Bend the
replacement IC’s legs so they are pointing straight down and
not angled outward. Align each pin In the center of each pin
hole and gently snap into place, all legs at one time, DO
NOT insert at an angle. Insure the IC is flush on the socket
and all pins are inserted.
