Chips

Follow these steps to replace a PROM chip:

Step

Action

1

Remove the card from the nest or enclosure.

2

Loosen and remove the four screws that hold the FLASH module to
the 6500

PLUS

processor card (Figure 2-22).

3

Carefully lift the FLASH module from the 6500

PLUS

processor card.

You may have to wiggle the card until the header pins disengage
from the socket.

4

Locate the PROMs as shown in Figure 2-22. Note the location of the
notch on each chip and, using a standard chip-puller, remove the
PROMs.

This will help you orient the new chips.

Note

Not all four PROM sockets may have PROMs.

5

Insert the new PROMs into the sockets. Be sure that they are oriented
the same way as the old chips.

6

Place the FLASH module on the 6500

PLUS

processor card. Insert the

header pins into the socket.

The pins should seat firmly into the socket, but be careful not to bend
the pins.

7

On the other side of the 6500

PLUS

processor card, use four screws to

secure the FLASH module to the 6500

PLUS

processor card.

Do not overtighten the screws or you may damage the 6500

PLUS

processor card.
