The Retrofit

Preparation

Step 1:

Use Sensor Configuration Editor and a SLTA to download and save the current 

Sensor configuration out of racks for later reference.

Step 2:

Turn off the main breaker and disconnect all of the Cam-Lok® connectors from 

the touring rack.

Step 3:

Pull the modules out of the rack. Note and document the module’s 

order/positioning in the rack for proper insertion and configuration later.

Step 4:

Use a digital voltmeter and VERIFY that power is off by checking voltages for all 

combinations between the phase bars, neutral and ground.

Step 5:

Remove the rack door in front of the CEM 

by pushing down on the tab in top hinged 

corner.

Step 6:

Remove the left side of the touring rack 

(10 Phillips head screws) and set it aside.

Remove the Old

Step 1:

Unscrew the dimmer output edge connectors from the backplane metal.

Step 2:

Carefully feed the dimmer output ribbon cables through the backplane 

individually. As you remove the ribbon cables, mark them with a permanent 

marker them as illustrated above in the hexagons. There may be stickers on the 

ribbon cables already, however these refer to cable length and not dimmer 

outputs. They should not be used as a reference to these instructions.

Step 3:

Examine each ribbon cable for any nicks or cuts due to backplane scrapes.

Step 4:

Unscrew and remove the control data cable connector (J3) from the backplane 

and feed it through the metal work.

Step 5:

Unscrew the power edge connector (J1). Remove it from the backplane by 

sliding it out of the notch in the rack and carefully pushing it through the 

N o t e :

The order/layout of the dimmer output edge connectors is different on the CEM+ 

backplane.
