3.
Lightly squeeze the fader knobs together to lift the panel up enough to reach the red cable on the
bottom of the panel.
4.
Unplug the red flat cable from either the panel or from the DSP card (Dual Fader panels) or Monitor &
Output (Monitor Control panel).
5.
On Dual Router or Dual Selector panels, also unplug the blue flat cable.
Note: If you need to replace one of the assemblies, contact Harris Broadcast Technical Service
Department for service or replacement parts.
Installation
To install a fader control panel into the frame, perform these steps:
1.
Using a 2mm hex tool (70-57 or equivalent), remove the four hex screws of the blank panel covering the
slots where the control panel is to be installed.
2.
Remove the blank panel.
3.
Hold the panel so that the red flat cable can be plugged into J5 on the panel.
4.
On Dual Router or Dual Selector panels, plug in the blue flat cable into J3.
5.
Lower the panel into the frame so that it sits level on the top and bottom rails. It may be necessary to
adjust or coil the cable(s) so they do not get pinched by the panel’s sides.
6.
Fasten the panel to the frame using the hex screws removed in Step 1.
Fader Removal and Reinstallation
There are no replaceable or re-buildable parts on NetWave fader assemblies. The faders are long-life,
conductive plastic, single-element faders used to control a DC voltage. No audio passes through any fader or
pot on the NetWave console.
If coffee, a soft drink, or other sugared liquid has leaked into a fader, remove the fader from the panel as
soon as possible. Hold the fader under hot running water while moving the fader slider back and forth to
dislodge any sugars. Do not use any soap or other chemical to clean the fader. Dry the fader using a hair
dryer or heat shrink gun set on a low-heat setting. The fader must be completely dry before it is reinstalled.
If the fader movement is rough, either the lubricant on the glide rails has evaporated or foreign material has
gotten into the fader. If running the fader under hot running water does not help, the fader must be
replaced; the design does not allow for disassembly or re-lubrication.
To remove and reinstall a fader, perform these steps:
1.
Remove the control panel with the problem fader from the frame.
2.
Remove the fader knob and the two front panel fader hex screws using the 70-57 tool.
3.
To unplug the problem fader from the control panel board, unplug the fader assembly from the contact
board. It plugs into a 6-pin header using terminals 4, 5, and 6.
4.
Plug the replacement fader into the fader connector using terminals 4, 5, and 6.
5.
Fasten the fader to the front panel using the screws removed in Step 2. Snap the fader knob onto the
fader slider.
6.
Move the fader through its full travel to ensure it does not bind or scrape along the control panel slider
cutout.
