The following tools:

• Phillips 

screwdriver

•  3/16 in. nutdriver
•  1/4 in. nutdriver or pliers
• Scribe

Caution:

Most of the circuitry in the GPIB-232CT-A uses advanced CMOS
technology and can be damaged by static electricity.  Avoid
touching any of the components and take any necessary CMOS
handling precautions.

Disassembling the GPIB-232CT-A (AC Version)

This section describes the disassembly of the AC version of the GPIB-232CT-A.
The disassembly instructions for the DC version are located in the next section.

Warning:

The GPIB-232CT-A contains circuitry which operates with
hazardous voltages.  Do not open the unit unless you have removed
the power cord.

Refer to Figure 1 and complete the following steps to disassemble the
GPIB-232CT-A.

Note:

You may find that organizing the pieces as you disassemble the
GPIB-232CT-A simplifies reassembly.

1.

Disconnect any GPIB cables, the serial cable, and the power cord from the
GPIB-232CT-A.

2.

Using a 1/4 in. nutdriver or pliers, remove the jackscrews (A), the lock
washers (B), and the GPIB connector shield (C) from the GPIB connector (I).

3.

Using a 3/16 in. nutdriver or pliers, remove the jackscrews (D) and the
washers (E) from the 9-Pin D-Sub serial connector (L).

4.

Lift the metal cover (F) from the lower assembly (M) of the GPIB-232CT-A.

5.

Remove the four screws (G) that hold down the printed wiring board (H) at
each corner with the screwdriver.
