FR series Amplifier ribbon replacement instructions (NEW! IMPROVED! July 2000)*

Models affected: FR series M1200, M1400, M1400i

M1200: All models. M1400i: Before Serial # DA20889 and all models with “AM” prefix. M1400 and 230v versions: Before Serial # DB12700 and all models with “AH” prefix.

Add this as part of your normal repair procedures. Note: This bulletin replaces all previous ribbon bulletins.

Symptom:

Ch.1 or 2 output signal intermittently fades out, or cuts out completely and/or the DC supply rail fuses blow.

Possible Cause:

The two ribbon cables from the input board may be defective

Solution:

*Replace the input ribbon cables with an improved type in all of the above models, (including any which

have had the previous ribbon bulletin completed).

Safety Warning:

Caution! These instructions are for use by qualified personnel only. To avoid electric shock, do not perform any servicing unless you are qualified to do so. Refer all service to qualified personnel.

Tools Required:

Phillips screwdriver, Torx and Allen drivers, needle nose pliers, safety glasses.

Parts Required:

040-359-00 Ribbon cable, 28GA, 20 Pin, Length 4.25”, PLZD Quantity = 1 040-360-00 Ribbon cable, 28GA, 20 Pin, Length 18”, PLZD Quantity = 1 400-077-00 20 Pin Headers Quantity = 2

Procedure:

1. Remove all cords (including the power cable and speaker outputs) from the amplifier.

2. Take off the top cover and inspect the ribbon cables. If they are not marked 040-359-00 or 040-360-00 then proceed as follows:

Remove the input board:

3. Undo the XLR screws, TRS nuts, and pull out the four pot knobs.

4. Disconnect the short ribbon cable from the amp board, and the long cable from the front panel display board. On later amplifiers, you will have to remove the front display board first.

5. Disconnect the black ground wire from the amp board.

6. Undo the four screws on the right side of the chassis. This will give enough room to pull out the input board. Catch the two metal XLR plates before they fall inside (not present on later amplifiers).

Procedure continued.

Input board work:

If the two ribbon cables are soldered to the input board, follow steps 7 to 11. If not, then go to step 12.

7. Remove the metal shield plate and insulator sheet from the back of the input board.

8. Carefully unsolder the ribbon cable headers from J16 and J11. Discard part# 040-033-03, 4 inch ribbon cable. Discard part# 040-033-02, 18 inch ribbon cable.

9. Solder two new headers (#400-077-00) to the input board, with the cutout side pointing towards the center of the input board (i.e. downwards).

10. Replace the metal shield plate and insulator sheet onto the back of the input board.

11. Add part# 040-359-00, 4.25 inch ribbon cable to J11. Add part# 040-360-00, 18 inch ribbon cable to J16. Align each cable’s color stripe with the header’s pin 1. Make sure both ribbons are fully inserted, then proceed to step 15.

If the two ribbon cables are not soldered to the board, follow steps 12 to 14.

12. Discard part# 040-062-00, 4.25 inch ribbon cable. Discard part# 040-062-02, 18 inch ribbon cable. You may have to undo the display board screws in order to remove it from J1.

13. Add part# 040-359-00, 4.25 inch ribbon cable to J11. Add part# 040-360-00, 18 inch ribbon cable to J16. Align each cable’s color stripe with the header’s pin 1. Make sure both ribbons are fully inserted.

14. Refit the display board, once the long ribbon cable is securely attached to J1.

Putting the input board back in:

15. Add the two metal XLR plates (where fitted) and carefully fit the input board back in place. Put the four pot knobs back after the board is in place.

16. It can be difficult getting the knobs back on through the chassis holes, but you can make it easier by snipping off a bit of the plastic center ridge, as shown in the little knob diagram below.

17. Add and tighten all the nuts and screws, and the four chassis screws (removed in step 6).

18. Make sure that all ribbon cables are secure and that all ends are fully inserted.

19. Reconnect the black wire from the input board to the amp board.

20. Replace the top cover.

21/ Perform a complete specification and safety test before returning the unit to the customer.
