2. Cycle the Machine Power Off.
3. Locate the ISA Card Rack and remove cover.
4. Locate an open ISA slot amongst the existing cards. (should be an open slot near canbus controller)
5. Remove ISA blank bracket from the slot, and discard, retain mounting screw for use on Network Card
Installation.
6. Install Network card (415-0600-004T) in the chosen slot.
7. Fasten with mounting screw from step 5.
8. Replace cover on ISA Rack.
9. Locate two black coax cables (406-1663-002).
10. Locate BNC Y-type connector (406-0804-049).
11. The BNC connector has a board side with one connection point, and a cable side with two
connection points.
12. Attach one end of each of the two coax cables, to each of the connection points on the cable side of
the BNC connector.
13. Connect the board side of the connector to the matching BNC connection point on the newly installed
Network Card.
14. Locate the cable with RJ-45 connectors, telephone type (406-1663-001)
15. Install one end of the cable into the telephone jack on the newly installed Network Card.
BMC COMM PANEL INSTALLATION
16. Locate the comm panel mounted in the left-side door of the main electrical cabinet.
17. Remove the components from the existing comm panel and set aside, retain all mounting screws,
they will be used to reinstall components on new panel:
The two DB-9 comm port connectors (PORT 1 and PORT2)
The hour meter, indexer connector, and the light switch (if applicable)
18. Remove the existing comm panel and discard, retain the mounting screws, they will be used to mount
the new comm panel.
19. Install the BNC connectors (406-0804-048) in the new panel where its labeled coax in and out.
20. Install the RJ-45 connector (406-0804-047) in the new comm panel where its labeled 10 Base-T.
Use the 3mm screws, washers, and nuts provided in this kit.
21. Install the new comm panel. Refer to (802-2700-022) for proper orientation, and secure with screws
from step 18.
22. Install all components that were removed in step 17. Refer to (802-2700-022) for proper location.
23. Use button plug (408-8001-027) for light switch hole, if light switch is not present.
24. Locate the existing comm cables and their routing from the ISA rack to the comm panel.
25. Locate the three new cables that are attached to the new network card, keeping the cables together;
route them with the existing Comm cables up to the comm panel.
26. Connect the telephone type cable to the telephone type plug, and connect the coax cables to the BNC
type connectors. (Either BNC cable can connect to either BNC connector)
27. Cycle the Machine Power On.
28. Verify machine operation.
29. If Network Option does not operate correctly, verify that the PLUG AND PLAY function is disabled
