The Retrofit

Preparation

Step 1:

Use the Sensor+ Connect web interface to download and save the current

configuration out of the rack for later reference. Instructions on saving your

configuration from this interface can be found in any CEM+ Software Release

Note or any CEM+ Configuration Manual available for download from the ETC

website (

www.etcconnect.com

).

Step 2:

Turn off main power to the rack(s). Before removing dimmer or control

modules for service, de-energise main feed to dimmer rack and follow

appropriate safety procedures for your region.

Step 3:

Remove the eight dimmer modules above the CEM+ (if retrofitting an ESR+48 or

36 rack, remove the eight modules below the CEM+ as well). Note and document

the modules’ order/positioning in the rack for proper insertion and configuration

later.

Step 4:

Use a digital voltmeter and VERIFY that power is off by checking voltages for

all combinations between the phase bars, neutral and earth.

Step 5:

Remove the CEM+ from the rack.

Remove the Old

Step 1:

Disconnect the DMX plug-in connectors and CAT5 cable from the backplane and

label them accordingly.

Step 2:

If fitted, label and disconnect the Panic In, Panic Out, External Beacon and

SmartLink wires from the screw terminal block of the CEM+ backplane.

N o t e :

If your backplane includes an IEC connector for the NEFM (Network Electronics

Filler Module) there are additional steps you will need to perform to transfer these

components to the new backplane. These steps are included throughout the

following procedure and are indicated by “(IEC ONLY)” at the start of the step.

N o t e :

Sensor+ SmartLink stations are not compatible with Sensor3.
