Replacing the Communications
Module on the Field PC
Follow the instructions in this document to
replace the Field PC communications module.
Important:
Please read through all of the instructions
before beginning.
Replacing the communications module
requires you to handle small screws. To
avoid losing any screws, we recommend
replacing the communications module in
an office or enclosed area.
If you prefer not to replace the
communications module yourself, you can
ship the Field PC and replacement module
to your customer service center, and we will
replace the part for a small fee. Contact
your service center for details.
