Publication1785Ć5.13 April 1996

Follow these steps to upgrade the processor firmware.

1

Save processor memory using the programming software.

2

Remove the battery cover and disconnect the battery.

3

Skip this step if you have a PLCĆ5/11 or Ć5/20 processor.

Remove the phillips head screw near the channel 1B LED and

gently remove the channel 1 communication plug. Be aware

that the memory grounding clip may move or drop off from the

cover mounting tab.

4

Skip this step if you have a PLCĆ5/11 or Ć5/20 processor.

Remove the lug nuts that hold the serial channel to the metal

face plate. These lug nuts are located on the exposed circuit

board for PLCĆ5/40 and Ć5/60 processors.

5

Remove the four screws that hold the right side plastic cover.

6

Remove the washers and two remaining screws located in the

middle of the exposed circuit board.

Separate the two processor boards by pulling the exposed circuit

board at the backplane edge connector away from the metal cover

as you would open a book. Notice the direction in which the battery

cable is wrapped around the nearby standoff to prevent obstruction

of the dip switch. After you separate the boards, pull the battery cable

through the battery housing (still attached to the circuit board.)

8

Disconnect the wires leading from the keyswitch to the stake pins on

the exposed circuit board.
