6.1.1  Control Unit PCB Replacement 
Note:  The  Modbus  data  cable  to  the  Remote  Display  Unit  should  NOT  be  connected  to  or 
disconnected from the Control Unit with the power applied to the Control Unit or the Remote 
Display Unit. 
1.  Prior to powering down the Mk7 OMD system use the Remote Display Unit to read and make note of 
the parameters below. 
These values will need to be re-entered into any replacement Control Unit PCB, using the Remote 
Display Unit during commissioning. 
 
a.  The Modbus address of the Control Unit. 
Note the Factory default Modbus address = 1. 
b.  The number of Detectors connected to each Control Unit, 
c.  The Pre-Alarm and Slowdown Alarm levels for each detector. 
Pre-Alarm level: adjustable between 0.5 - 1.2mg/l 
(Factory Default level of 0.9mg/l). 
Engine Slow/Shutdown Alarm level: adjustable between 1.3 - 2.4mg/l 
(Factory Default level of 1.8mg/l. 
d.  The positions of the End of Line jumpers on each Control Unit. 
Note: End of Line jumpers are ONLY installed on the last Control Unit connected to the Modbus 
in any Mk7 OMD multi-engine system or to Control Unit 1 for a single engine system 
2.  Power down the system. 
3.  Remove the 4 screws from the lid and lift the Control Unit lid off. 
The metal lid is connected to a PCB fixing point by a short earth wire (see below). The Membrane 
Keypad is also connected to the Control Unit PCB by two ribbon cables.
