MONOGRAPHPLUS CAUTION STATEMENT
|
||
|
||
|
||
The following caution statement is included both as a separate
|
||
warning notice, and as a notice within both manuals in each
|
||
MonoGraphPlus shipping package.
|
||
|
||
C A U T I O N ! ! !
|
||
|
||
TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO YOUR MONITOR, DO NOT RUN THE IBM
|
||
DIAGNOSTICS WITH YOUR AST RESEARCH MONOGRAPHPLUS
|
||
BOARD UNTIL YOU HAVE MODIFIED THEM ACCORDING TO THE
|
||
INSTRUCTIONS IN APPENDIX A OF THE MONOGRAPHPLUS
|
||
USER'S MANUAL OR APPENDIX E OF THE MONOGRAPHPLUS
|
||
TECHNICAL REFERENCE MANUAL.
|
||
|
||
If you run unmodified diagnostics with the MonoGraph
|
||
Plus board, the screen will display "garbage" and
|
||
damage to your monitor can result. Under no
|
||
circumstances will AST Research, Inc., be liable in
|
||
any way for damages that arise from running
|
||
unmodified IBM diagnostics with the MonoGraphPlus
|
||
board.
|
||
|
||
Do not run the diagnostics if you are unable to patch
|
||
them.
|
||
|
||
The damage which is referred to is that a fuse within the
|
||
Monochrome monitor may "blow" and result in the requirement for a
|
||
service call. As this is an internal fuse, the monitor must be
|
||
opened up to service the fault. We do not recommend that the
|
||
customer attempt this service himself. Potentially lethal
|
||
voltages exist within the monitor, even with the power cord
|
||
removed from the source. In addition, this fuse is soldered into
|
||
the circuit, and as such, soldering skills are required for its
|
||
replacement.
