ION 8600 Field Retrofit Instructions

Issue:
In 2011, field retrofit instructions were re-release along with the kits to customers who wish to retrofit/repair there Communication card and IO card for socket and switchboard meters. Separate manuals are released for the socket meter and the switchboard meter.
Customers with a socket meter can upgrade the feature set of the meter in the field, while customer with the SWB meter can only replace the existing functionality of the meter. This is because the cable routing for the SWB meter is very complicated and too difficult to retrofit correctly.
