CHANGE IN THE ICU CIRCUIT BOARD UNIT.
1.Model name: JX-9400 (models bound for the destinations listed below).
Destination: (AE / AL / AU only)
USA, Canada, Barbados, Dominican Republic, Central America, Colombia, Venezuela,
Costa Rica.
2.General: The ICU circuit board unit has been changed to improve productivity.
ICU Circuit board unit Old New
Parts code CPWBX0056GC51 CPWBX0063GC51
No. : LPE-184
The circuit changes and parts changes which have been carried out in accordance with
the above mentioned change in circuit board are as described below in numbers ➀to
➇.
➀ Discontinuation of 16.000 MHz crystal (RCRS-1014ACZZ).
➁ In order to change the CPU clock from 8 MHz to 9.83 MHz, the CPU has been
changed to a 10 MHz unit (VHI68EC000-10 68pin PLCC).

➄ Change in 256K DRAM.
Due to a production halt by the maker, the part corresponding to VHIMN41464A08
(location No. IC 1, 2) has been changed to VHILH2464-10C, a part with the same
specifications.
➅ Discontinuation of CPU pull down resistance.
The new circuit board does not have block resistance installed in locations no. RA 8,
12, 15, 17, or 19 (refer to the figure below).
➅ Not installed.
