Installation and Upgrade of the Internal NXT Components

Upgrading the components within each of the Table Top panels involves removing the outer housing (with
speaker plate), removing and/or installing an existing component, and then placing the outer housing back onto
the NXT panel, as described in the following sections.
Do not use Ethernet cables containing mounting boots. These boots could make
removal of the Ethernet connectors (from the panel) difficult and cumbersome.

Step 1: Remove the existing NXT Outer Housing

1.
Carefully detach all connectors from the rear of the touch panel and then gently place the touch panel
LCD facedown onto a soft cloth to expose the under-side of the base (FIG. 15). This step helps prevent
scratching of the LCD.
2.
Tilt the base forward so that both the bottom surface and Housing Screws are easily accessible and then
carefully remove the four plastic adhesive feet.
Reference the location of the four plastic adhesive "feet". Once the outer housing is
placed back onto the panel, these "feet" must be placed back in their original
locations so they can fit into their provided openings on a Battery Base.
3.
While holding the outer housing and base plate at a 45° (to prevent it from sliding), use a grounded
Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the eight Housing Screws.

4.
Rotate the panel back over (while gripping the entire unit with outer housing) and rest the base back on a
flat surface.
5.
Gently tilt the LCD backward to a 45° angle.
6.
In a single motion, carefully pull the outer housing up and then out (away from the LCD panel) to expose
the internal circuit board (FIG. 19). The NXA-RGB card is available within both the optional RGB Kit
and NXA-RGBKIT upgrade.
7.
Unscrew the Stereo Output nut from the Stereo Output jack.
8.
Firmly grab the existing connector plate and slide it up and away from the base. This part is later replaced
with the RGB connector plate.
