Illustrated Parts Breakdown 650QS Pedestal System

This document is an Illustrated Parts Breakdown (IPB) manual for the Digital Equipment Corporation 650QS Pedestal System, published around December 1989.

Its primary purpose is to identify and list all components of the 650QS system, including its main assemblies, sub-assemblies, and individual parts. The manual provides:

• Instructions on how to use the IPB, explaining conventions for indented parts lists, column descriptions (e.g., Digital Equipment Corporation Part Numbers, ECO Cut-in, Used On Codes, Figure References), and part sorting.
• Detailed illustrations and exploded views of the 650QS Pedestal System, showcasing its various components such as the enclosure, bulkhead, base, shell, and front panel assemblies.
• Comprehensive parts lists linked to these illustrations, providing descriptions of each part and their corresponding Digital Equipment Corporation part numbers.
• Information on various system configurations and options (e.g., 120V/240V versions, "Timeshare" vs. "Server" models, variations with/without "Skins," "Rack Kit," "Wall Kit," and different memory capacities).
• Indexes sorted by DEC Part Number and Part Description for easy lookup.
• Standard corporate disclaimers, copyright information (1988, 1989), and a list of Digital Equipment Corporation trademarks.
