1.1 System Information
When installing the new computer and display system, Greer Company recommends the existing
rectangular shaped reeling drum be replaced with our current production reeling drum, A240690. The
rectangular shaped reeling drum has been classed obsolete. There is no longer field support for this
product.
Upgrading the reeling drum will ensure you have both field support and parts support in the future. The
A240690 Reeling Drum is equipped with the necessary parts to be a direct replacement for the
obsolete part.
The new computer uses Flash RAM technology for loading the Duty Files. If known at the time of
purchase, the proper Duty File will be loaded on your computer before installation.
If you are unfamiliar with preparing the computer for use, kit K758746 is available from Greer Company.
The kit contains a programming cable and a CD with software, drivers, and the “Greer Mini Loader”
program.
