Change out the Beacon PCB
Step 1:
Remove the top four dimmer modules from the rack to allow access to the PCB.
Step 2:
Remove the two screws that hold the beacon PCB in the face of the rack.
Step 3:
Pull the PCB down from inside the rack
case. (The wire harness will only allow a
few inches of movement).
Step 4:
Note the orientation of the connector and
unplug the wire harness from the old
beacon PCB.
Step 5:
Attach the wire harness to the new
beacon PCB making sure the connector
is in the same orientation as before.
Step 6:
Install the new beacon PCB (ETC Part #
7141B5109) with two screws (ETC Part #
HW222) (two new screws of the same type are provided in case the old ones
were damaged during the removal process).
Finishing Touches
Step 1:
Carefully remove old Sensor+ label from the front of the door and discard.

Press and wipe with a piece of cloth or
paper towel to make sure the label is
flat & smooth and properly adhered to
the rack door.
Repeat the above steps for the remainder of connected racks.

Although the colour of the beacon is unchanged, the voltage is different. The part
number of the new PCB is printed on the circuit board (7141B5109).
N o t e :
Be sure to use a properly sized screw driver (#2 Phillips) and a good amount of
force as these screws are kept in place with a thread locker. Don’t worry about
damaging the existing screws (replacements are provided) or shearing off the
heads of the screws (the screw shanks are threaded into the PCB’s standoffs).
