Identifying Specific Units Affected by a Shorting OIB 
 
Identifying Specific Units Affected by a Shorting OIB 
A unit may be affected by the shorted OIB condition if it was manufactured prior to 
August 2007 and has not yet been reworked to address this condition. 
Erratic operation or total node failure may indicate a short between an OIB power 
trace and the node housing ground boss. Regardless of whether they exhibit trouble 
symptoms, all Reverse Segmentable GainMaker Nodes made prior to August 2007 
that have not been reworked for this condition should be returned for rework. 
Note: Reverse Segmentable GainMaker Nodes with date codes of August 2007 or 
later will already be reworked or will have a redesigned OIB that prevents the 
condition from occurring. 
To Identify the Manufacturing Date 
A label affixed to the node housing indicates the month and year of manufacture. 
The month is represented by a capital letter, as follows: 
Code 
Month 
January 
February 
March 
April 
May 
June 
July 
August 
September 
October 
November 
December 
For example, the date code H2007 indicates that the node was made in August of 
2007.
