Upgrades and Repairs

You can perform the following upgrades and repairs to the SGS 408:

Installing the DVI connector option (see below)

Replacing the AC fuse (page B-3)

Installing a firmware update (page B-4)

Before completing any of these procedures, follow the instructions in “Internal access”, below.

Internal access

Upgrades and fuse replacement require access to the internal areas of the switcher. To gain access to the internal areas, do the following:

1.Remove the power cable from the switcher and from the power source.

Do not open the cover of the switcher without unplugging the power cord.

2.If the switcher is rack mounted, remove the input and output cables from it and remove the unit from the rack. If the switcher is not rack mounted, you do not need to remove the input and output cables.

3.Remove 16 screws from the sides and top of the cover and the two #10 screws from the top half of the front panel (figure B-1).

Remove (16) screws from top and sides.
