Troubleshooting
Replacing a Control Resource Card (CRC)
1. If you have a redundant system, hold down PANEL 
ENABLE and press ACTIVITY FREEZE ON.
Power down the control node before removing the 
Control Resource card. Powering down the node 
takes the system out of service.
2. Power down the main control node (see page 136).
Wear an anti-static wrist strap whenever you handle 
circuit cards.
3. If the system has a CRCIII, disconnect the two modular 
cables from the faceplate of the card.
4. Slide the CRC out of the cabinet.
5. Remove the system ID module from the connector J1 on 
the faulty card.
6. Plug the system ID module into connector J1 on the 
replacement CRC. The system ID module can be 
installed only one way. Ensure that you align the pins 
correctly.
7. Set the DIP switches on the replacement CRC faceplate 
to the same settings as those on the faulty CRC.
8. Insert the replacement CRC into its cabinet slot.
9. If the system uses a CRCIII, reconnect the modular 
cables to the same ports on the replacement CRC III 
faceplate.
10.Power up the main control node (see page 138).
