Processor Board

A lithium battery on the processor board provides power for the Real
Time Clock (RTC) and CMOS RAM. This battery has an estimated
life expectancy of three years if power is not applied to the system
and seven years if power is applied. When the battery loses power,
system settings (stored in CMOS RAM) such as the time / date may
be wrong. The figure below shows the location of the battery.

The replacement battery must be a 220 mAh coin cell lithium battery
that is compatible with the Sony CR2032 battery.

ATTENTION: Disconnect all power from the 6180
Computer before removing components. Failure to
disconnect power could result in severe electrical shock
or damage to the 6180 Computer.

ATTENTION: Wear a wrist strap (well grounded)
and perform work in a static safe environment.
Electrostatic discharge can damage the 6180 Computer
and components.
