Installing the Transcoding Module

The following procedure describes how to install the Transcoding Module (TM) onto the TCU.

Prerequisites:

  • Place the new TM in an ESD-safe location.
  • Wear an ESD wrist strap or take similar equivalent actions to prevent static damage to the TCU or other ESD-sensitive components.
  • Note the location of the TM connector on the TCU.

To remove the TM:

  1. Grasp the TM between your thumb and index finger of each hand and line up both sides of the module with the slot guides attached to the TCU (see below).

  2. Guide the module evenly into the slot guides located on each side as you lower the component into the connector. Press evenly across the top of the connector to fully seat the TM on the TCU as shown below.
