Replacing the Single-Board Computer (SBC)

Field Modification

1 INTRODUCTION

This document provides instructions for Nautel customers or their appointed agents to modify

the subject equipment in the field.

1.1 Reason for Modification

A new generic SBC (Nautel Part # 207-8720) must be used as the replacement if the original

fails. The new SBC is electrically compatible, but depending on the vintage being replaced,

there are physical differences in the connector locations/styles.

1.2 Equipment Affected

This modification affects the following NX series AM broadcast transmitters:

models with Nautel Part # 207-8710, 207-8710-01, 207-8710-02, 207-8998, 207-8998-01

SBC installed (containing UB97).

models with the original Door Computer assembly Nautel Part # 207-8708 or

207-8708-01 (containing UB66).

models with Field Mod # FM13016, FM13016A, FM13016B, or FM13016C installed.

If your transmitter or spare NAPC160* PWB was shipped between May 2019 and November

2021, please follow IS21007* – NX Series – Upgrading Controller Firmware (NX SW 5.0).

1.2.1 Minimum Software Required

Replacing the SBC requires that your NX transmitter have software version 4.0 (or 4.7 for

NX15), as a minimum. If the transmitter is operating with software version NX SW3.x or

earlier, follow the instructions in Information Sheet IS13005* in the latest software directory

located in www3.nautel.com/NX_Series/ to complete the required software update.

1.3 Responsibility for Implementation

This modification is written for qualified transmitter maintenance personnel.

1.4 Scheduling

Implement this procedure at the convenience of station maintenance personnel noting that

the transmitter will be “off-air” if a software upgrade is required.

1.5 Manpower Requirements

Completing this modification requires approximately one (1) hour.

1.6 Special Tools/Test Equipment

Standard Phillips screwdriver

7 mm nut-driver/socket

USB mouse for touch-screen calibration (if compact flash card is replaced)

USB Keyboard along with IS18005* (may be required for initial startup of the

transmitter - visit www3.nautel.com/NX_Series/ to obtain this IS document)

1.7 Materials

The parts required for this modification are contained in the provided Field Modification kit

(Nautel Part # 207-9005-05), see Table 1.

the transmitter with “FM13016D” next to the serial number label using indelible ink to indicate

it has been modified.

1.9 Publications Affected

The Single Board Computer Assembly (A40A1 – NX15 to NX50, or A65A1 for NX100 to

Manual with the applicable schematic provided with this document.

2 REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE

Remove the SBC as follows:

NOTE

The replacement SBC assembly is static sensitive and can be damaged by electrostatic

discharge (ESD). Observe the static precautions described in the NX series technical

documentation.

(a) Open the front door of the NX transmitter to access the SBC.

(b) Remove the old SBC cover (Nautel part # 207-8292) using a 7-mm nut-driver/socket to

remove the seven (7) M4 hardware, which holds the SBC's protective cover to the front

door of the transmitter. Retain hardware. See Figure 1.

Figure 1: SBC Cover Removal

Page 6 NX15 to NX400 Transmitters - Replacing the Single-Board Computer (SBC)

Issue 1.0 FM13016D

(d) Disconnect the remaining connectors from the SBC as follows:

No label – VGA

No label – COM

W66P2 – SBC Streaming Bus

W67P2 – SBC External Serial

P33 (NX25/NX50) or P35 (NX100 to NX400) – SBC Reset

(e) Using the label set (Nautel Part # 207-8999-02) provided with the Field Modification kit,

replace where applicable or apply new mating labels to connectors P30, P33 (or P35),

P36, P37, COM2, VGA, U10HDMI, W67P2 and W66P2 to reflect their new mating

connectors as shown in Table 2. Label both ends of COM2 and P101/P102 cable.

NOTE: Use labels "A40" for NX25/NX50 (e.g., A40A1U1PWR2). Use labels "A65" for

NX100 to NX300 (e.g., A65A1U1PWR2). Use labels “A62 for NX400 (e.g.,

A62A1U1PWR2).
