Appendix E – Board Replacement
Applicability
This appendix covers the removal and replacement procedure for boards for input and output boards for
the Epica DGX 16 and 32 (see tables). Epica DGX boards are hot-swappable, i.e., the procedure can be
done while the system is powered up (see the “Caution” at the bottom of this page).
Epica DGX SC Optical Boards
Epica DGX DVI Boards
Procedure Overview
Important: Adding or replacing boards should only be done by personnel trained to handle
ESD sensitive parts and assemblies.
ESD Warning: To avoid ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) damage to sensitive components,
make sure you are properly grounded before touching any internal Epica DGX 16 or 32 materials.
Use an ESD wristband and cord with an alligator clip attached to a good ground source.
Items Required
 Epica DGX board(s)
 Phillips #1 screwdriver
 ESD wristband and cord with alligator clip
 PC with a terminal emulation program (e.g., HyperTerminal) and an RS-232 null modem
cable
Caution: The safety recommendations for laser products include applying power last. If instead
of powering down during the board replacement procedure, you decide to take advantage of the
DGX SC Optical board’s ability to hot-swap, be sure
that you follow the rest of the laser safety
recommendations on the next page and in the instructions when replacing a DGX SC Optical board.
