FIGURE 2 Removing the cover from an FGS device.
Installing the EEPROM
1. Remove the EEPROM from the package and align the lead pins over the EEPROM socket. Refer to
EEPROM socket location on FGS devices.
The semicircular indentation on the EEPROM is located on the same end as pin 1.
.
2. Align the semicircular indentation on the EEPROM with the semicircular cut-out on the EEPROM socket and gently push the
EEPROM into the appropriate socket (for FGS 624 and 648 devices the socket number is U37.
Make sure you insert the EEPROM so that lead pin 1 goes into the correct hole as shown in the
appropriate illustrations. If you accidentally insert the EEPROM backwards, the device will not work and
may be damaged when you power it on.
Do not push too hard. If the EEPROM does not readily go into the socket, stop pushing and verify that the
lead pins are straight and aligned over the holes. Straighten any crooked pins, then try again.
