The EPROM Set consists of 7 EPROMs for
the top ROM PCB and 3 EPROMs for the
CPU (bottom) board.
EPROM Replacement Procedure:
1. Unlock and open the Rear Door. The
"Jungle King" Game PC boardset, located
on the inside of the Rear Door should be
removed as follows: Disconnect connectors
G, H, and T from the boards. Loosen and
tum the Stop Bracket; then pull the 3
boards (as a unit) towards you, out of the
board guide. Set the boardset on a flat work
surface component side facing up.
2. On the topmost (very small). circuit board,
remove and replace the EPROM chips as
shown in the table below. Refer to Figure 1
for EPROM chip locations as needed.
Remove the "old" chips, and replace with
the "new" chips supplied with this kit. The
label markings (KN52 etc.) denote the chip
identification numbers. IMPORTANT:
The notches in all EPROM chips MUST
face in the same direction when installed.
Chip KN55 will NOT be removed, and
should be used as a guide for notch direction.
When completed, inspect all replacements
to be sure all pins are in their sockets, and
that there are no bent pins.
