Install Integrated Circuits 

1.

 

For a medTester 5000C Firmware Upgrade, remove IC U20 and U21 
on the digital PCB, and install the new U20 and U21 (40-pin devices 
with labels). 

2.

 

For Modules 4 (Expanded Memory) and 7 (medCheck), install all the 
RAM ICs (32-pin devices without labels) that you have received in the 
next available positions—U23, U24, U25, U26, U27, in that order. 

Test the Installation 

1.

 

Fold the two case halves back together temporarily, closing the case.  

2.

 

Plug in the instrument, turn on the power: 

A.

 

For a Firmware Upgrade an initialization will be performed 
automatically.  

B.

 

Calibration is not affected by this initialization, so the instrument 
remains calibrated. 

C.

 

The instrument should display a startup message, then display 

MAIN 

MENU 1

D.

 

Test the RAMs:  From 

MAIN MENU 1, 

press 

F5 UTIL, 

then 

RIGHT 

arrow, then 

F2 DIAG, 

then 

F4 MEMORY, 

then 

F2 RAM

. The indicated 

RAM ICs should test 

GOOD

 

All instruments:  U22 

 

With Module 4 Expanded Memory:  U23 

 

With Module 7 medCheck:  U24, U25, U26, and U27 

 

Press 

Esc 

enough times to return to 

MAIN MENU 1.

 

Reassembly 

Reassemble the instrument now. 

1.

 

You should have temporarily closed the case. With the unit unplugged, 
now open the case again by unfolding the top case and laying it down. 

2.

 

Attach the shield to the digital PCB with the six (6) screws. These are 
the steel screws without lockwashers. 

3.

 

Make sure all cables are still in place. If they have slipped off, 
reconnect them firmly.
