Replacing or Upgrading Memory Modules
5-6
WARNING!
The controller board in the controller module contains sensitive components. Please
ensure that all anti-static precautions stipulated above are strictly adhered to. Only
qualified engineers should replace the DIMM module.
5.3.2 Selecting a Memory Modules
If the memory module mounted on the controller is going to be replaced, the following
factors must be considered when purchasing replacement DIMM modules:
♦ Pre-installed DIMM module: The subsystem comes with a 256MB DDR RAM
DIMM module pre-installed on the controller board. If you wish to change the size
of the DIMM, then a new, separately purchased DIMM must be installed.
♦ DDR RAM DIMM modules supported: The subsystem supports DDR RAM DIMM
modules with memory capacities from 256MB to 2GB.
♦ Installation considerations: When installing the DIMM module, it is necessary to
handle the controller module. The controller board is more susceptible to damage
than the other components and must therefore be handled with extreme care. ALL
anti-static precautions specified in Section 2.3 must be strictly adhered to.
♦ Secure installation: When replacing the DIMM module, make sure that the new
DIMM module is firmly in place prior to installing the controller module. If the
DIMM module is not firmly in place, the subsystem will not run and the controller
will need to be removed and the DIMM module correctly installed.
♦ Purchasing considerations: When purchasing a DDR RAM DIMM to install on the
controller board, contact your vendor for an updated list of certified modules.
5.3.3 DIMM Module Installation
WARNING!
The pre-installed modules must be removed prior to installing new memory
modules. Do this with care. Sensitive components can be damaged during the
process.
Step 1. Remove the controller module. See Section 5.2.3.
