Line Card Memory

If necessary, rock the DIMM back and forth gently to align it in the socket.

Caution When inserting DIMMs into a socket, apply firm, but not excessive, pressure. If you damage a DIMM socket, you must return the line card for repair.

Step 6 Gently insert the DIMM into the socket and push until the DIMM snaps into place and the release lever is flush against the side of the socket.

Step 7 Verify that the release lever is flush against the side of the socket. If it is not, the DIMM might not be seated properly. On a socket with dual release levers, both levers should be flush against the sides of the DIMM.

If the module appears misaligned, carefully remove it and reseat it, ensuring that the release lever is flush against the side of the DIMM socket.

Step 8 Repeat Step 3 through Step 7 to install any remaining DIMMs for your memory configuration.

Removing a SODIMM

Use the following procedure to remove a SODIMM.

Caution To remove a memory module from the SODIMM0 socket, you must remove the memory moduled from the SODIMM1 socket first.

Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap and follow its instructions for use.

Step 2 Place the line card on an antistatic mat so that the faceplate is nearest to you.

Step 3 Locate the route memory socket on the line card.

Step 4 If present, remove the SODIMM1 retaining clip from the memory module socket. Grasp the latch arm intersection located on each side of the clip and gently slide the clip out (Figure 24).

— Save the retaining clip.
