Remove and Install the AC Precharge Control Circuit Board for Frames 8...15
Replace the AC precharge control circuit board with kit catalog numbers 20-750-MACPC1-CD and 20-750-MACPC1-EF. Follow these steps to remove and install the AC precharge control circuit board.
- Review the product advisories in Before You Begin.
- Remove power from the system.
- Open the enclosure door.
- Remove the protective guard. See Remove and Install the Input Bay Guard for Frames 8...15.
- IMPORTANT: The minimum inside bend radius for fiber-optic cable is 50 mm (2 in.). Any bends with a shorter inside radius can permanently damage the fiber-optic cable. Signal attenuation increases as inside bend radius is decreased.
- Without bending the cable to a radius less than 50 mm (2 in.), remove the fiber-optic cable from the transceiver in the ACP port on the AC precharge control circuit board.
- Open the transceiver latch and pull the transceiver out of the connector on the board. You can retain the transceiver as a spare part.TIP: If the latch is obstructed and you cannot use your fingers to open it, use a small, screwdriver or other long, narrow tool to open the latch.
- Cut and remove the tie wraps that secure the wire harnesses that is connected to the AC precharge control circuit board.
- Loosen the two 5 x 12 mm slotted-Torx screws that secure the circuit board panel to the AC precharge module chassis or enclosure side sheet and slide the panel out of the chassis as far as possible.
- Disconnect these wire harness connectors from the connectors on the AC precharge circuit board:
- P1 from J1
- P2 from J2
- P3 from J3
- P4 from J4
- P5 from J5
- P6 from J6
- P7 from J7
- P11 from J11
- P12 from J12, if present
- Record the position of the PE-A jumper on the circuit board. The PE-A jumper on the new AC precharge control circuit board must be installed in the same position.

- Remove the bracket and board by sliding the bracket out of the drive.
- Install the AC precharge control circuit board in the reverse order of removal.
- TIP: This illustration represents a fiber-optic transceiver port on an example circuit board only.
- Remove the protective cover from the ACP port on the new AC precharge circuit board.
- Remove the new transceiver supplied with the kit from the packing materials.
- IMPORTANT: The end of the transceiver that connects to the inside of the fiber port contains dielectric grease. Do not touch the end of the transceiver.
- Remove the protective covers from the transceiver.
- Without bending the cable to a radius less than 50 mm (2 in.), fully insert the fiber-optic cable into the transceiver.
- Insert the transceiver and fiber-optic cable into the port on the board, until you hear an audible ‘click.’
