8-11. Removing the IEEE-488 Interface Option
The following instructions can be used for access and servicing an IEEE-488 Interface
Option that is already installed in a Fluke 45 Dual Display Multimeter. For initial
installation, refer to the Instruction Sheet (PN 856005) provided with the option.
1. Make sure the meter is turned off and unplugged from the power outlet.
2. Remove the screw on the bottom of the meter case and the two screws from the rear
bezel (as shown in Figure 8-1A). While holding the front panel, slide the case and
rear bezel off the chassis (see Figure 8-1B). (At this point, the rear bezel is not
secured to the case.)
3. Using needle nose pliers, disconnect the 24-line cable assembly at the IEEE-488
PCA by alternately pulling up on each end of its connector. See Figure 8-2.
4. Refer to Figure 8-3 for the remaining steps. Remove the panhead Phillips screw at
the rear of the IEEE-488 PCA.
