After searching our inventory and checking what machines are out there, I have come to find out that we didn't ever sell a single C406, just a bunch of the C306's. So, it seems I have no PCDU's to play with.
But still good knowledge to have.

Hi there!
Yep, i had the "luck" to order a black pcdu, guess what: it was the wrong no. - MPC 406 pcdu. Needed it for the customer - changed the cable, pfffff......
Greetings...
Spoke to a former engineer and he did the same thing, had 406 PCDU with him by mistake for a 307 and realised. Swapped it over and said it was ok, that customer did ring back later I think saying it had an sc code or something, he returned. Can't remember what he did, think he didn't connect it well enough, re-did it and it was fine there after. So sounds like it can be done pretty easily.
Sorry to resuscitate this old thread, but I just had a good laugh at my own expense, and thought some of you might enjoy this too........
I had a call this morning for streaks on an MP C306.
Over the phone I determined it was most likely the black PCDU causing the issue.
I had a low meter machine in my shop, and grabbed the PCU to take to them.
When I went to install the new PCU, I notice that the Connector is different, and I am extremely surprised.
How could that be?
Once I got home, I decided to do a little research on CTN - only to find a THIS THREAD that I started MYSELF almost 2 years ago!
So, obviously the PCU I took them was from a C406, and it turns out that not only did I know they weren't the same 2 years ago, but I was also provided the solution how to modify the unit to make it work by Zeldaman, and I could have performed the mod on-site, rather than re-schedule a visit for next week.
Gotta love getting old !
Anyway, as the saying goes....'If you can't laugh at yourself..."
Beer Me!
Enjoy the weekend!
