System Flash Disk Replacement
(See Figure 13)
1.
From the control, go to SETUP, SERV CODES, SECTION A, and then code 142
and save your Configuration file (calibration values, etc.) on a floppy disk. There
is a disk in the electric’s cabinet for this purpose. Label this disk as “Backup
Configuration” and store it for later use.
2.
Turn power off to the machine and control.
3.
Unplug all the connectors on the pendant arm side of the pendant.
4.
Remove the pendant from the pendant arm by removing the (4) ¼-20 x 3/4”
SCHS that secure it in place.
5.
Place the pendant assembly on a clean and secured table with the display
pointing away from you.
6.
Remove the (6) 10-32 x 3/8” Pan Phillips Head Screws and (4) 10-32 x 3/8” FHCS
securing the computer module to the LCD/enclosure.
7.
Pull the computer module a few millimeters and stop. Pulling the computer
module too far will damage the ribbon cables.
8.
Remove the defective System Flash Disk (located on the back side of the mother
board) by pushing the eject button on the flash drive.
9.
Firmly insert the replacement System Flash Disk into the drive, making sure that
the label with the serial number is pointing towards the motherboard.
10.
Secure the computer module back to the LCD/enclosure by following the
instructions in reverse order.
11.
Make sure that all connectors are properly seated before fastening the unit back
in place.
12.
Turn power on to the machine and control.
13.
When the system boots, you may get a message stating that the system cannot
find your configuration file. Press NO if asked to load defaults.
14.
Update the System Software by inserting the PT4SX update disk into the floppy
drive. Go to service codes 316 and 317 found in section A. Update the master
and slave software.
15.
Restore the Configuration file saved on your backup configuration disk with
service code 141 found in section A of the service code section.
CAUTION!
It is a good idea to back up your flash disk from time to time via a network or floppy disk. If
your flash disk needs to be replaced you will loose all of your programs. See your programming
manual for instruction on how to do this.
