Standard or Advanced Wipe Generator
Before proceeding, ensure that you have the correct sub-board; the
Standard Wipe Generator board is Accom P/N 9400-0708; the Advanced
Wipe Generator board is Accom P/N 9400-0681. Figure 3-11, below,
shows the major components on both Wipe Generator sub-boards and
their assembly numbers for identification.
WARNING: Removing the Switcher board
disconnects the RAM battery backup. Save all
effects, timelines, personality files, and
engineering setups to disk before extracting the
board.
STEP 1: Power down the 8150 Signal Chassis. Remove the integral
front cover/air filter to access the 8150 Switcher board. Use
the Accom supplied tool to extract the Switcher board from
the chassis and lay it on a clean, static free, grounded work
surface.
NOTE: Seating the sub-board requires moderate pressure.
Ensure that the Switcher board is sufficiently supported so
as not to flex.
STEP 2: See Figure 3-12, on the following page, to locate the Wipe
Generator sub-board (J6 and surrounding shaded area).
Remove the screws securing the installed Wipe Generator
sub-board to the Main board, then remove the sub-board.
