location (See Page 33). Note: Before tightening the (4) socket head screws, locate display mount so that a gap
between the top of the register frame and the display mount is at maximum clearance, so that the register guard
can be re-installed.
1. WARNING: Power MUST BE DISCONNECTED from the machine before starting this procedure.
2. Remove the back feeder, parallel & register guards.
3. Install I-fold display mount (See Assy. Drawing FK2001426) onto register frame as shown in I-fold display mounting

receptacle “COM 2”, see Figure 2.
4. Install mounting arm into display mount.
5. Mount computer and enclosure onto mounting arm as shown in figure 3.
6. Remove Bottom cover plate from I-fold computer enclosure, to expose computer’s connectors, see Figure 1.
7. Install power cable FK201500 into computers power socket. Install communication cable FK2001501 into computer
computer’s enclosure, until both cables have a 3” to 4” service loop on the cable between the connectors and the
strain relief’s. Tighten outer strain relief nut to hold cables securely, see Figure 3.
8. Run both the power and communication cable through a cable strain relief located in a plate on the back side of the
the goose neck mounting arm tube and pull cables out the bottom of the mounting block, as shown in Figure 3.
9. Run both power and communication cable up into the hole of the enclosure mounting bracket and down through

through the wire channel across the register. Remove two hole plugs in the back of the electrical enclosure and
install two cable strain reliefs. Run the two cables through the strain reliefs. Install folder guarding and wire
channel cover. Tighten the two strain relies to secure the cables.
10. Mount the 2 cable anchors, as shown in Figure 4. Mount cables with wire ties to the anchors as shown, run

Run the communication cable to the top of the communication board and will wire into the two rows of terminals.
Add an extra 2” to 3” of cable, and then cut cable to that length. Strip back 4” of cable jacket and shielding to
expose conductors. Cut pink, brown & green conductors 1” shorter than the other three conductors. Strip
approximately 5/16” of wire insulation from each conductor. Wire communication cable into the communication
board terminal block as shown in figure 6.

the ribbon cable, this must be on the left side of connector as shown. The connector can be installed backwards.
Run cable and connect to the X27 connector on the DTC500 board, see Figure 9. Note orientation stripe on the
ribbon cable, this must be on the left side of the X27 connector as shown. The connector can be installed
backwards. Secure the ribbon cable with wire ties, NOTE: do not over tighten or crush the ribbon cable with the
wire ties.
12. Add ribbon cable. Connect one end to the communication board as shown in Figure 5. Note orientation stripe on
must be tied together with a tie pin, this will insure that both fuse holders will open at the same time. Label fuse
13. Add new fuse blocks to the din rail to the right of the existing fuse blocks as shown in Figure 7, The fuse blocks
blocks as A-F1 and A-F2. NOTE: DO NOT INSTALL FUSES AT THIS TIME. Run I-fold power cable between
transformer and the terminal blocks and into the wire channel. Run cable to the bottom side of fuses. Add an
extra 2” to 3” of cable, and then cut cable to that length. Strip back approximately 8” of cable jacket. Strip
approximately 5/16” of wire insulation from each conductor. Add ring terminal to the green \ yellow conductor
and mount to ground lug shown in Figure 7. Wire conductor 1 to bottom of fuse block A-F1 and wire conductor 2
to bottom of fuse block A-F2.

the orientation of the chip notch, the new chip must be installed in the same direction. Care must be taken not to
touch the legs of the chip. Carefully install new chip into the U6 socket.
16. Cleanup wiring and reinstall all wire channel covers that were removed.
17. Replace DCT500 software chip, shown in Figure 9. Carefully do this by using a small screw driver and lifting the
