Reference Information

Installing New SIMMs

SIMMs are sensitive components that are susceptible to ESD damage. Handle SIMMs by the edges only; avoid touching the memory modules, pins, or traces (the metal fingers along the connector edge of the SIMM).(See Figure 8.)

Figure 8 Handling a SIMM

H2326

Caution Handle SIMMs by the card edges only. SIMMs are sensitive components that can be shorted by mishandling.

Follow these steps to install the new SIMMs:

Step 1 Ensure that the RSP7000 is in the same orientation as the previous procedure (with the handle away from you and the edge connector toward you).

Step 2 Remove a new SIMM from the antistatic bag.

Step 3 Hold the SIMM component side up, with the connector edge (the metal fingers) closest to you.

Step 4 Hold the SIMM component side up, with the connector edge (the metal fingers) closest to you. Hold the sides of the SIMM between your thumb and middle finger, with your forefinger against the far edge, opposite the connector edge. (See Figure 8.)

Step 5 Tilt the SIMM to approximately the same an angle as the socket and insert the entire the connector edge into the socket. (Install the first SIMM in the slot farthest away from you. Install the last SIMM in the slot closest to you.)

Caution When inserting SIMMs, use firm but not excessive pressure. If you damage a socket, you will have to return the RSP7000 to the factory for repair.

Step 6 Gently push the SIMM into the socket until the spring clips snap over the ends of the SIMM. If necessary, rock the SIMM gently back and forth to seat it properly.

Step 7 Repeat Steps 2 through 6 for the remaining SIMMs.

Step 8 When all SIMMs are installed, check all alignment holes (two on each SIMM), and ensure that the spring retainer is visible. If it is not, the SIMM is not seated properly. If any SIMM appears misaligned, carefully remove it and reseat it in the socket. Push the SIMM firmly back into the socket until the retainer springs snap into place.
