Module Exchange Program, Rather than diagnose and exchange individual components, you will: replace complete modules. We feel this is the most time and cost effective method of repair, both for you and your customers. The ESQ-1 Service manual is divided into four different sections and includes service information on both the ESQ-1 Digital Wave Synthesizer and the ESQ-M Digital Wave Synthesizer Module. In April of 1987, ENSONIQ replaced the Metal Case of the ESQ-1 with a Plastic Case. You can use the following criteria to determine which case is which: STYLE SERIAL#RANGE MAINBOARD ASSY # DISTINGUISHING FEATURE METAL 10000 - 24999 40900004001 NO HEAT SINK ON BACK PLASTIC 25000 - HIGHER 40900007001 HEAT SINK ON BACK There are no interchangeable parts between the metal and plastic ESQ-1. There is service information, however, that applies to both types of cases. It is for this reason that you find sections of the manual dedicated to: both the metal and plastic ESQ-1 (Section 1), the metal ESQ-1 only (Section 2), the plastic ESQ-1 only (Section 3) and the ESQ-M (Section 4).
