Replacing the IMC

1. Save the contents of the IMC memory in an IOC by issuing the following
command:
CPY-MEM:::::IMC,IOC,IMC;

In-Process response is issued. See the TimeProvider TL1 Reference Guide for
more information on the CPY-MEM command.
2. Attach a wrist grounding strap and connect it to the TimeProvider chassis.
3. Remove the IMC by loosening the captive screws and pulling the IMC from the
shelf.
4. Place the IMC in a static-free bag or on a static-free surface.
5. Insert another IMC into the shelf and tighten the captive screws.
6. Reload the IMC memory from the IOC by issuing the following command:
CPY-MEM:::::IOC,IMC,IMC;
