Advantech PCM-3350 Series user manual SO Dimm socket Slot1, Installing SODIMMs

2.18 SO DIMM socket (Slot1)

You can install anywhere from 8 MB to 128 MB of onboard SDRAM memory using 8, 16, 32 or 128 MB 144-pin SODIMMs (Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Modules).

2.18.1 Installing SODIMMs

Note:	The modules can only fit into a socket one way. Their
	gold pins must point down into the SODIMM socket.

The procedure for installing SODIMMs appears below. Please follow these steps carefully.

SO DIMM installation

1.Make sure that all power supplies to the system are switched off.

2.Install the SODIMM card. Install the SODIMM so that its gold pins point down into the SODIMM socket.

3.Slip the SODIMM into the socket at a 45 degree angle and carefully fit the bottom of the card against the connectors.

4.Gently push the SODIMM into a perpendicular position until the clips on the ends of the SODIMM sockets snap into place.

5.Check to ensure that the SODIMM is correctly seated and all connector contacts touch. The SODIMM should not move around in its socket.

Important: Only use standard form SODIMM memory modules (as shown in the diagram below). Standardized dimensions ensure a proper fit. Check with your memory supplier about the SODIMM modules you will use.
