Tool

Requirements The procedure for installing the Version 3.6 controller ﬁrmware

requires the following tools:

• Flat surface — for working on the controller board

captive screws

• Flat blade screwdriver — for extracting ROM chips

• Antistatic wrist strap — for preventing damage to electronic

components

Your upgrade kit includes an antistatic wrist strap.

Caution Take these precautions while performing the installation

controller board.

•Be careful not to gouge any components on the

controller board with the screwdriver.

•Be careful when handling the ROM chips. The pins

bend easily and damage is not covered by warranty.
