Replacing the microchip C8 on the control console
To do this first disconnect the machine from the power supply and open the front
panel on the control console which houses the console card. Microchip C8 is
located at the front of the card (as indicated by the arrow). A label is affixed to
the chip indicating the type and version of the software programme.
"
Remove the old chip from its socket and replace with a new one, taking care
to fit it the right way round. Follow the necessary precautions against electro-
static discharges to avoid damaging the chip (do not, for example, wear rub-
ber---soled shoes or woollen clothing etc.). Close the control panel and test
the machine.
Assembly reference notch
Mak sure the chip is not inadvertently fitted back--to--front, as this could cause
damage to the apparatus.
Machine parameters Eeprom memory
If you have to replace the control console, transfer one of the EEPROMs from
the old card to the new one in order to save all the machine parameters: the
EEPROM memory is illustrated in the photo below.
