GTC – SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT GROUP 2.3. CONNECTING THE SPARE BOARD TO THE PC CAUTION! In order to avoid the risk of electrical shock only skilled personnel should use and install the Appliance Connection Kit. You should NEVER power on the spare board from the mains supply (230VAC) when it is not installed in the appliance. In most cases the adapter interface module provides the necessary power to the board during the configuration procedure, without the need of connecting the mains supply. Before handling the electronic board, you should discharge your body from possible electrostatic charges, by touching one conductive object connected to earth.
In addition, you should never touch both neither the board nor the adapter module interface connector during configuration program download and, in general, when the board supply is present. These precautions reduce the risk of damaging the electronic board because of electrostatic discharges. If you want to create a spare board for a specified appliance, you should connect the naked board to the PC for the configuration. To connect the board to the PC you need to do the following steps: Turn off the interface module (if it has a separate power supply). © 2012 Electrolux Italia S.p.A., All rights reserved 29 File: SidekickPC Manual (EN).pdf - Date: 20/04/2012
