|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | A & D boards can't be mounted in the "Edge Cu block" position | Disassemble Cu block assemblies. Remove 12 screws connecting stages and 2 screws connecting motor driver. | Can be done, but reassembly takes a long time. |
| 2 | JTAG Connector in the "Edge Cu block" position collides with stage motor | Remove JTAG connector after programming initial firmware? | |
| 3 | Poor grip on modules | Work in progress | The module connector on the back blocks existing tools like waver tweezers |
| 4 | If pre-attached, some of the flexes need to be bent and forced through a small opening; Or, poor grip on modules (see 3 above) and tight spaces make it very hard to attach the flex cables to the modules when they are nearly in place | Either pre-attach flexes to modules and maneuver / push flexes through small opening Or develop a handling tool (see 3 above) | Work in progress |

The entire assembly with 2 Cu blocks and brazed Cu lines can't be disassembled. However, removing the Cu block assembly is possible by disconnecting:
| 12 screws connecting to the stage (4 shown here) | 2 large screws attaching the motor driver |

|
And the assembly can be gently maneuvered out of the camera body:

Reassembly is likely to take a long time; the 3 stages and assembly have to be perfectly aligned.

Handling real modules
Very small grip area on the edge, with connector on the back.
The flexes can be preinstalled and the modules lowered in place, connected, then fixed. However, pushing the flex connector in while having a poor grip is not ideal. Alternatively, the flex cables can be safely attached to the modules first, then bent and pushed in place, and only connected afterwards. To be checked when modules are availableWorks.
