Fitting an ECONET module

Note that any modification or upgrade carried out to the printed circuit board of any

Acorn equipment is undertaken at the sole risk of the person carrying out the

modification or upgrade. No claim for loss or damage to the equipment caused by the

modification or upgrade of the printed circuit board by unqualified personnel shall be

accepted by Acorn Computers Limited.

WARNING - A number of the components used within ACORN equipment are STATIC

SENSITIVE. All usual anti-static precautions must be taken to prevent damage to these

devices.

Before attempting this upgrade, please read all the instructions carefully. If you are in

doubt about your ability to carry it out, the ECONET module and the microcomputer

should be taken to your nearest authorised Acorn dealer.

A charge may be levied by the dealer for installing the ECONET module; such a charge

shall be entirely at the discretion of the dealer concerned.

Dismantling the microcomputer

Before attempting to fit the ECONET module to your machine, first ensure that the unit

is disconnected from the mains power supply.

The upper half of the case must be removed from the unit to allow access to the main

printed circuit board. To do this, turn the computer upside down and place it on a firm,

flat surface; locate and remove the four fixing screws that hold the upper half of the case

in place. These screws are located on the underside of the unit, two at the rear and two at

the front of the machine, and are labelled 'FIX'. Please note that the two fixing screws

fitted to the rear fixing positions are longer than the other two.

When the fixing screws have been removed, carefully re-invert the computer whilst

holding the two halves of the case together. The upper half of the case may now be

removed by lifting it directly upwards from the machine.

Machine orientation

Within this fitting instruction, the points of the compass are used to indicate the way in

which things are orientated. With the machine positioned such that the keyboard is

nearest you and uppermost, the nearest edge is designated to be SOUTH, the rear

NORTH and right and left are designated EAST and WEST respectively.

The ECONET module will be installed in the NORTH-EAST corner of the main printed

circuit board
