instAlling Pcbs
The UltraWave Series controller arrives from Kistler-Morse with the specified PCBs installed. However, you can
expand your system. There are three positions on the motherboard of the controller that accept PCBs. Note the
following restrictions on PCB positions in the controller:
Position 1:
2-, 4-, or 8-channel Scanner PCB only
Refer to Appendix E and follow this procedure to install an optional PCB into the controller:
1. Open the door of the controller.
2. Turn off the UltraWave Series controller — the AC switch is in the upper right corner of the PCB.
3. Place the PCB in the designated position on the motherboard. Be sure the PCB connector inserts
completely into the motherboard connector.
4. Secure the PCB in place with the three screws supplied with the PCB.
5. Connect the field wiring to the PCB.
6. Restore power to the controller. Close the door. Installation is complete.
If you change a 2-, 4-, or 8-channel Scanner PCB on the controller, you must use the Enable functions in the
Service Menu to bring the new channels on-line. Refer to
Menu Descriptions for the use of those functions.
