mpageler Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Had a short in my outlet on a Gen 3 CTP16PC. While searching for fuses, I pulled one too many items out of board. Right below the Ethernate connectors, there's 1/4" squarish plug that has 2 rows of 3 pins each. I bent it all the heck. Will be out of town this wseek and won't be able to follow-up with helpdesk. Any ideas on what this is, and any potenitilal sources for it. I now wish I had followed throught with thoughts on having a backup 16PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpageler Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share Posted November 24, 2019 The socket for this plug looks like it's 2 rows with 4 pins. Is this plugs actually a CPU chip of some kind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDucks Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 I think it is the RS485 driver chip ( My G3 is at a different site) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpageler Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share Posted November 24, 2019 Did some searching and didn't see reference to driver chip but did find rs485 interface ic and rs485 transceivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
