IC 12 is not essential. The Chicklet will work without it however you will lose AUX_SWITCH_1. Everything else will function as expected. We will send you one as soon as possible. I am on vacation in Curacau(island off of Venezuala) so I do not get very reliable internet. This is the second time I have had to type this E-mail. I will attempt to contact Tom Watson at IFI and have him overnight you a new one on monday. We will eventually need the defective one back. No hurry however. If you have to ship it with the robot so be it. IC 12 is a digital switch. It is not vital to anything but aux switch 1. If you have any questions contact Tom Watson at IFI ext 204 or Omar at
ozrien@crosstheroadelectronics.com. Do not try to repair the board. That part was placed by a machine.
