Control Board Assy. Removal

The Control Board Assembly has eight connectors to interface with external assemblies. A single connector (CN5) is used with the TwinAx/CoAx interface option as an external interface. The other seven connectors are used with board-mounted option assemblies. The daughter board also has three connectors which must be disconnected for board assembly removal.

CAUTION

CN15 and CN16 are identical in appearance, but are oriented differently. Reversing the two connectors could damage the printer.

1.Remove the following connectors from the Control Board:

CN2 Printhead

CN3 Stepper Motor

CN4 Operator Panel

CN6 Power

CN8 Bi-Cell Sensor (detector)

CN11 Bi-Cell Emitter

CN15 Ribbon Take-Up Motor

CN16 Ribbon Supply Motor

NOTE: CN3 is not readily accessible in its installed position. It is removed with the board partially lifted free.

2.Remove wiring at connectors CN3, CN6 and CN10 from the daughter board.

3.Move harness cables aside to allow clearance for board removal.

4.Slide AC inlet module boot back to access connectors.

5.Disconnect seven spade connectors at back of inlet.

6.Release the AC inlet retaining tabs and slide the AC inlet out the back of the printer.

7.Remove the AC inlet’s green ground wire from the frame to allow the module to clear the back frame.
