To remove the top cover, ensure that the drive assembly is isolated from the ac and dc input supplies.
Then locate and unscrew the 13 screws securing the top cover to the mainframe. Access can then be
gained to the following modules:

Removal
Before attempting to remove the Processor module, and if possible, save the drive assembly settings.
To achieve this connect a PC with the VFP software loaded to the radio using the PC to Radio
Interconnection Lead (Park Air part number 17E12600001). With the VFP software active, upload the
radio settings to a specified file.
