Maintenance
This chapter explains maintenance work that you may perform on your
own, i.e. it will be explained in detail what to do in case of a firmware
upgrade failure (see section “Upgrading the Firmware” on page 3-15).
An upgrade of the firmware is a delicate procedure comparable to a
BIOS upgrade of a computer motherboard. If, for example, an environ-
mental extreme like a power failure occurs while the upgrade program
is running, the PCI video board may loose all its programming.
In case the programming of the PCI video board is lost, act as described
in the following to restore it:

If appropriate, turn off the computer system where Atomix LT is
installed and disconnect its power cable(s).

Open the casing of the computer system. For details on how to do
this please refer to the respective manufacturer’s manual.

Set the DIP switch for the Flash controller on the PCI video board
(see section “Overview of the Soldering Side” on page 2-6) to the
setting indicated in the following figure:
Prior to performing the procedure for a firmware upgrade fail-
ure contact the DVS service department to make sure that this
procedure is really necessary.
The computer system you are working on usually works
with voltages that can be hazardous to your health.
Never work on the system or access its interior with the
power cable(s) being plugged in. Make sure the power
supply is disconnected from the components you intend
to work on.
Computer hardware contains components that are sensitive
to electrostatic discharge. If you touch them without precau-
tionary measures, they can be destroyed.
Use a wrist strap connected to ground when accessing elec-
tronic parts and take care of grounding the video system.
Avoid touching the components of the computer and the
printed circuit board(s) of Atomix LT.
