About the DS3800HUMB1A1A

The GE Universal Memory Board DS3800HUMB1A1A is designed for quick installation in the drive. The board features a modular connector on 1 end and retention levers on the other end. The GE Universal Memory Board DS3800HUMB1A1A also is populated with 1 reset toggle switch and 1 red indicator LED. The board is also populated with multiple electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM) modules and 30 jumpers.

The GE Universal Memory Board DS3800HUMB1A1A is populated with 4 sockets for EEPROM modules. The modules can be written to while installed on the sockets. This makes new code updates easy and quick to apply. For example, if the firmware is causing an error and a fix is available on the newest  firmware version, the new version can be written to the module. To do that the toggle switch must be moved to the position indicated on the surface of the board. When complete, move the toggle switch back to the original position.

When the GE Universal Memory Board DS3800HUMB1A1A requires replacement, the modules can be removed from the defective board and installed on the new board. The modules are installed on a socket and they are designed to be removed and reused. Each module has a notch into which you can insert a screwdriver. Use the tool to pry off 1 end on the module. Then insert the blade into the other end of the module and the module pops off the socket. Wear a static protective device, for example a wrist strap, and place the module in a static protective bag.
