Are the BCR2000 and BCF2000 CPU boards interchageable?

2016-02-15 by Ron Anderson

Aside from the firmware chip of coarse, does anybody know if the cpu boards can be swapped on these devices.
I have managed to static zap two of my 3 bcr2000s and now they exhibit differing failure modes that follows the main boards when swapped. One is an Unknown device in device manager and the other one has the usb light that goes on when you plug in the usb then goes out for good.

I have 4 bcf2000s that I am eyeing with bad intent thinking one of them may have to be a doner.
I could swap the boards as I am using the BCF2000s in 5 pin MIDI DIN mode. :-)
