Figure 5. Removing the KPAIO3 Board.

Remove the left side panel (Figure 6). If you have the K144XV module installed, first unplug the remaining

coaxial cables and the power cable. Then remove all of the 4-40 (smaller) screws and remove the side panel with
the K144XV module attached. If the KXV3 sub-receiver is installed, carefully slide the K144XV module out
under the stiffener bar. You may need to lift the end of the stiffener bar slightly to pass the K144XV module
under it, but take care not to bend it.
