WARNING!
Be sure the chip you have selected to replace is a
socketed chip. Not all driver chips on the boards
are field replaceable. Only socketed chips may be
removed and replaced in the field. All other chips
that are not socketed will require sending the board
to the York factory for repair.
If you try to
remove a chip that is not socketed it will destroy

Remove the communications loop connector and

will occur if components are removed or

installed with power applied.
If you are unsure how to safely remove the chip or
about the correct pin placement, please consult the
factory before proceeding.
Damage to the board caused by failure to correctly
remove or install the chip is not covered by the
WattMaster warranty.
Use extreme care to avoid inserting the screwdriver
or I.C. Puller under the socket. You must insert the tip
of the screwdriver or ends of the I.C. Puller between
the body of the chip and the chip socket.
Each chip
be installed with Pin 1 in the correct
MUST
location. Installing the chip "backwards" will in most
cases destroy the device when power is reapplied.
Pin 1 can be located by looking for the notch in the end
of the chip. Pin 1 on "some" chips is identified with a dot.
Be certain that
pins are lined up in the socket
ALL
before pressing the chip in. Failure to properly line
up the pins will result in damage to the chip.
This is a
common error -
VERY
BE CAREFUL.
Only after confirming that the chip has been correctly
installed with Pin 1 in the proper position and that the
pins are lined up and none are bent or out of the socket,
should communication or power wiring be reconnected
to the board. Tp prevent possible damage always
reconnect the power wiring first and then the
communication wiring.
