RAM Installation Procedure

NOTE

1Disconnect any field wiring from the module and remove power from the mainframe before proceeding.

2Remove the module from the mainframe and remove the top shield from the module.

3Remove the 4 Mbyte SIMM from the PC board by first spreading the tabs at the ends of the SIMM connector. Store this SIMM in an anti-static bag and save this part.

It is important that you retain the 4 Mbyte SIMM you remove from the Digitizer. If you return your Digitizer to Agilent for repair or exchange, you must return it in the same configuration as it was shipped to you. You must remove the large memory SIMM and replace it with the standard 4 Mbyte SIMM shipped with the product.

4Add your replacement SIMM to the module’s RAM socket.

5 Reinstall the module’s top shield.

6Note the new memory configuration by checking the appropriate box on the module’s top shield.

7Set the “CALIBRATION CONSTANTS” switch and the “FLASH” switch to the “Write Enable” position.

8 Install the module in the mainframe and apply power.

9Set the new RAM memory size by sending DIAGnostic:MEMory:SIZE <size>.

10 Query the memory size to verify the setting by sending DIAGnostic:MEMory:SIZE?

11Remove mainframe power, remove the module and set the “CALIBRATION CONSTANTS” and “FLASH” switches back to the “Read Only” position.

12Reinstall the module in the mainframe.

WARNING TIGHTEN THE FACEPLATE SCREWS. Tighten the faceplate mounting screws to prevent electric shock in case of equipment or field wiring failure.
