Product Description

The GE Integrated Circuit Chip PROM Set features two PROM modules that are compatible with several GE Mark V boards. The EPROM modules store the configuration files for a drive, or other device. The configuration file from the factory is a default configuration. However, editing tools are available to edit the configuration for the purposes of the site. The configuration file can be downloaded to a laptop or other device for editing through a serial cable connected to the drive and to the serial port on the laptop or other device. Once you have completed the editing, you can upload it to the drive where it is stored on the PROM modules.

Because the PROM modules are damaged by static, you must consider the guidelines for handling static sensitive devices. The PROM modules come packaged and sealed in a static protective bag. It is important to keep the PROM modules in the bag and away from others who might accidently damage the PROM modules by handling them and exposing them to static.

When you are ready to install the modules wear a wrist strap. The wrist strap drains static electricity from your body and the board by connecting the other end of the wrist strap to a grounded surface, such as a metal support on a workbench. Some wrist straps have a plug that you can plug into a matching connector on a workbench.

Before you install the replacement PROM, download the configuration from it to the laptop. Then, install the replacement PROM and upload the same configuration file to the replacement PROM modules.
