Intermec EasyCoder 501 XP & 601 XP – Service Manual

Chapter 2
2. Front and Keyboard
The moulded front part is attached to the center section by means
of four #T20 screws and to the bottom plate by two #T20 screws.
The front moulding is provided with holes for mounting a cutter
connector (4-pin female DIN-type).
Note that the memory card adapter in EasyCoder XP printers is
fi tted on the CPU board and is accessible through a slot in the rear
plate whereas the slot in the front moulding is not used!
At the top part of the front moulding, there is a cavity for the
keyboard/display assy. This assembly is affi xed by means of two
2 mm hexagon grub screws underneath the keyboard part of the
front moulding.
The keyboard/display assy. is connected to P37 at the front of the
CPU board via a 10-p fl at cable. This cable must be disconnected
before the keyboard/display can be removed.
The keyboard/display must be manipulated carefully when it is
lifted out of its cavity. Do not use any force! If the assembly seems
to be stuck, open the right-hand door and remove the left-hand
cover to check that the grub screws do not interfere with the brack-
ets.
We also recommend you to remove the left-hand cover before you
start to fi t the keyboard/display assy. back into the front moulding,
since it makes it easier to align the brackets with the grub screws.
