Where the Configuration chip is corrupt or
is incompatible then do not fit the chip into the new
replacement MCB. Instead transmit saved
configuration from the commissioning tool to the
new MCB. The transmission must take place after
panel power up. Back up the configuration to
Card 14.
Re-fit the cards
¨
Fit the new MCB into the panel and reconnect the
ribbon cables, and then fit the previously removed
Network card and Loop cards.
¨
An earth lead must be fitted between the spade tabs u
on MCB and Network card.
