FRAM71B installation

[cdmackay]

thank you Hans, Sylvain, Dave & Bob.

A privilege to get such folk replying

I hope I've not damaged my HP-IL module getting it out; I only used finger pressure (but considerable), so hopefully not. It went back in OK, and responds to VER$, so hopefully it is OK.

I like Sylvain's cable idea

I'd read your dowel suggestion before, thanks Dave, and considered it, but was extremely nervous about damaging something else, so stuck to fingernails.


Come to that, I struggled a little getting the FRAM71B in, without pushing too hard on the pin connectors; the allen key sockets are sufficiently far away to cause it to tilt down, rather than go in, but I managed it in the end. And it's now working, thank you Hans
