This manual uses the symbols depicted below for Danger, Caution and Note:
Danger
This symbol indicates situations where failure to follow the instructions carefully can result in
danger to life, injury or accidents.
Caution
This symbol indicates situations where failure to follow the instructions carefully can cause
damage to your equipment.
Note
This symbol is used to draw your attention to a particularly important sections of text.
Important Rules
jaguar is no dangerous piece of equipment. Protective insulation and a series of additional protective measures
ensure that you cannot contact any harmful electric currents. However, as with all electrical equipment, you will
need to follow a few simple rules:
•Never switch on equipment that is obviously damaged. Send the equipment back to
your dealer or transtechnik for repair.
•If there is any reason to suspect a fault, unplug mains supply immediately. Ensure that
it cannot be operated again. Send equipment to an authorized dealer or back to
transtechnik for repair.
•Always unplug equipment from mains supply before opening.
•Assemblies inside the equipment can be very hot if it has just been switched off.

Common Rules
Repairing jaguar should be limited to changing assemblies. Faulty assemblies should be returned to
transtechnik for repair.
Changing assemblies is simple. Keep in mind following rules, to preserve full operation and reliability of your
console.
•Do not apply any violence
Remove assemblies or parts with care, replace them with caution.
Do not trap cables. On demand use tools to unplug connectors, for example a screw driver. Avoid
tensile loadings.
•Obviously damaged parts should always be exchanged.
•For handling printed circuit boards, refer to instructions on page 3
•Use screw drivers of appropriate size only.
•Unplug connectors only if you are sure that on assembly you will not confuse any cables or
connectors.
•Be careful on cables, use cable ties.
•Take care that no parts fall accidentally into the console. Missing parts can produce short circuits
or other subtle malfunctions.
•Do not forget or omit washers or retaining rings.
•Fasten screws and nuts with care.
•Lock screw joints using screw lacquer.
•After installation of assemblies check connectors and cabling.

Handling Printed Circuit Boards
Some printed circuit boards are equipped with CMOS-type parts. They are sensitive to overvoltage.
Uncontrolled touch of PCBs can destroy those parts. Consider following precautions, to avoid accidental
damage:
1. Touch PCBs or parts only for repair purpose.
2. Before you start working on PCBs or parts discharge yourself be touching an earth connected part of the
enclosure.
3. Dismount PCBs only after mains supply is switched off, better disconnected.
4. Before removing PCBs disconnect cables.
5. Touch PCBs only at the edge.
6. Use only antistatic packaging material for transport and store.
7. Prevent touch of PCBs and highly insulating material like plastic foils or clothing made from synthetic fibers.
8. Deposit PCBs only on conductive base.
9. Care for earth connection to welding iron.
Open jaguar
To access assemblies for service or repair you have to open the console.
Procedure
1Unplug mains supply
2Unfasten 10 screws, which attach front panel to the bottom section (right, left and backside)
3Lift front panel carefully
4Unplug cables connecting front panel to bottom section
X1 and X6 on TT-1781, X31 on TT-1778, earth connector from TT-1783)
5Put aside front panel.

Power Supply
Power supply is divided into 2 parts:
•Power supply unit generates 15V DC from mains supply.
•Voltage control TT-1778 generates additionally +5V, +/-12V and +/-15V. On power fail, it switches to
accumulator power controlled by a signal from the IO2 card.

Remove
1Unplug mains supply
2Remove fuse near accumulator
3Unscrew 5 screws from PCB TT-1778, unplug 4 power supply lines
4Flap PCB towards back panel
5Power supply unit is attached to retaining bracket by 3 screws. Unfasten screws and tear power
supply to front side.
6Unfasten connections and demount cables, cut cable ties if necessary.
Install
1Attach power lines; take care on colors

Adjust Output Voltages
For proper operation of the console the output voltages have to be adjusted carefully.
Procedure
Power supply unit has to be installed and connected properly
All assemblies must be properly in place and fixed, no loose parts should be visible
1Plug jaguar to mains supply and switch on power
2Breakpoints for measuring voltage are mounted on PCB TT-1778 (5V, +12V, -12V, +15V, -15V)
All voltages are related to GND.
3On PCB TT-1778, adjust 5V supply voltage to 5,25V, +/- 0,05V by potentiometer RP1,
Refer to figure 2 on page 8.
4Adjust +15V directly on power supply with a precision of +/- 0,2V
Accumulator
The accumulator is responsible for power in case of power fail. jaguar saves all show data to the hard disk
before it is switched off.
Figure 3:
Detailed view accumulator with fuse
Procedure for Exchange
1Unplug mains supply
2Unplug power connectors on PCB TT-1778
3Unfasten 4 screw and demount attachment device
4Exchange accumulator, fix it by the attachment device
5Tighten attachment device by 4 screws
