Change-out Procedure
1. Hook up your computer to the front port of the TR-2100 and connect to the unit
using DS32. After communications is set up, make sure you have a current
configuration of the TR-2100. Also, make sure that you have downloaded any
events that you may need. Now disconnect DS32 communications from the TR-
2100 and remove the communications cable from the front port of the unit.
2. Set up your ESD protection. Open the front panel using the two screws at the top,
and then turn the Power Switch to OFF. We recommend also turning off the
power feed to the unit. You will not need to disconnect the power wiring to the
rear of the TR-2100. Leave the front panel open.
3. Locate the Acquisition Card in the chassis. It will be the top-most board in the
chassis. Note that it has six cables attached to it, four are ribbon cables, one is a
white connector and one is a small round black fiber optic cable.
4. Remove all six cables from the ACQ card:
LED Board Cable (1077-259)
Digital Ribbon Cable (1081-995)
Analogue Ribbon Cable (1081-999)
PPS Time Sync Cable (white connector with 2 red and 2 black wires)
Time Code ribbon cable (1082-098) GPS Fiber Optic Cable (1082-110)
5. Next, locate the large Phillips screw that holds the ACQ board in place, which is
located on the left hand side. Remove this screw, and then remove the ACQ
board from the unit.
6. Locate the GPS Receiver unit on the ACQ board. This is located on the right
hand side of the board and has four screws, washers, and nuts holding it on. It
will be about two inches square and has the plug for the Black GPS Fiber Optic
