1.2 Theory of Operation
The CABINET operates on 208-250VAC 50 or 60 cycle single-phase power. The main switch
activates a relay, which supplies line voltage to two distribution boards, two cooling fans and a 12volt transformer, which supplies a power supply. The power supply provides 5VDC to the
communication board and the distribution boards.
A ribbon cable connects the communication board to both distribution boards, connecting at J9.
Ribbon cables, which carry 5V DC, also connect the distribution boards to the displays. The
resistance of RTDs attached to the heater plates is monitored by the distribution boards. The board
switches power through solid-state relays to the heater plates when the resistance, which is used as
an indicator of temperature, falls out of the range for the product held in the cabinet.
The switch, transformer, communication board, cooling fans and power supply are mounted under
the top of the unit. There is a small dark lens portal on the upper right side of the cabinet, which
allows infrared communication between the cabinet and a Palm Pilot. The distribution boards are
mounted on the left side (as viewed from the front).
The parameters for holding temperatures are transferred to the cabinet’s communication board via a
Palm Pilot with special CABINET software. All programming of the cabinet is done on the Palm.
NOTE: This manual covers the UHC-P, the original
PDA-programmed cabinet for McDonald’s and the HCP
or Holdmaster, a similar cabinet made for the general
market. UHC-P parts are compatible with the HCP,
except for the heater plates and bezel.
Note: The illustrations
for these service
procedures are of the 4slot full size UHC-P. The
procedures are similar
for the 2-slot and the
narrow models.

1.3 Start Up Indicators and Test Points
Upon startup, the communication board beeps. On the
distribution boards, an LED flashes rapidly for a few
seconds and then slows to one flash every two seconds.
The displays will show the version number of the
cabinet’s firmware and then the slot’s status.

2 Service Procedures
DANGER: Failure to disconnect the power supply before servicing could result in serious
injury or death. The cabinet power switch DOES NOT disconnect all incoming power to the
cabinet.
The top is held
in place by
screws behind
the side panel.
The side panels are
secured with two
screws at the base.

Figure 2: Four sheet metal tabs hold the top in place.
Remove these screws at each corner and lift off the
top.
Remove the
bottom screw
and loosen
the top one to
tilt out the
front panel.
Figure 1: The side panels must be removed to
access the component shelf.
2.1 Accessing the Electronic Components
1. The component shelf is accessed by removing two
screws on each side of the unit. See figure 1.
2. Lift and remove the sides, which exposes screws
that hold the top in place. See figure 2.
3. The front panel, which holds the switch and the IR
lens, can be rotated forward by removing a screw on
either side and loosening two others. See figure 3.
With the removal of four more screws, the
component shelf will slid forward if necessary.
Figure 3: Remove the screws which secure the
component shelf, allowing the shelf to be pulled
forward.

Cabinet Service Procedures
All the components are readily removed. There are no replaceable components on the circuit boards.
The replacement of a display, distribution or communication board will require re-addressing the
cabinet, covered in Section 3.
2.2 Tests
2.2.1 Transformer
1. Disconnect power to cabinet. Remove side and top panels, unless stacked. See the service
procedures for access instructions, Section 2.1
2. Check for 208VAC at the primary, 12VAC at the secondary terminals.
2.2.2 Power Supply
1. Disconnect power and check all terminals and
connections for loose or disconnected wires.
2. Apply power and check for +5VDC at the J5 terminal
on the communications board, using the center pin for
the positive lead and either adjacent for the negative
lead.
2.2.3 RTD
1. Remove the leads from the suspect RTD and test for
resistance. selected temperatures and resistances are
show in Figure 7, a chart at right.
NOTE: After testing, reconnect all leads to their
original positions.
