Chapter 3 PC2R Disassembly/Assembly

Introduction

This chapter contains all the procedures for the disassembly and reassembly for the PC2R—as well as instruments with factory-installed or after-market options.
Warning: If possible, save all user programs and setups before disassembly. For instructions, refer to Saving User Data in Chapter 5, page 5-1.

Cables, Connectors

Flat Ribbon Cables
All at ribbon cables with connectors are keyed, and therefore cannot be reversed. Most at ribbon cables have locking cable clips. Be sure to reapply the clips when connecting cables. Flat ribbon cables that connect to picoex connectors do not have locking cable clips.
Some at ribbon cables have exposed wires that insert directly into a wire trap connector. When disconnecting and connecting these cables, you must look for the marking on the edge of the cable denoting Pin 1 and be sure that you match it correctly with Pin 1 on the board.
Cable Routing
In some cases, tape secures cable connections or fastens cables to the bottom enclosure. Always peel back the tape from one side when disconnecting cables so that the tape remains properly positioned.
