Cisco Systems (VIP6-80) manual Installing SDRAM DIMMs

Step 8 Repeat Step 4 through Step 7 for the remaining DIMM, if required for your upgrade.

This completes the DIMM removal procedure.

Installing SDRAM DIMMs

With the VIP6-80 handle away from you and the bus connector toward you, use the following procedure to install the new DIMM in the DIMM socket:

Step 1 Remove the new DIMM from its antistatic container.

Step 2 Hold the DIMM between your thumbs and forefingers. (See Figure 8.)

Note The 64-MB DIMM should be facing component-side down.

Step 3 Insert the connector edge of the DIMM straight into the socket.

Caution When inserting the DIMM, use firm but not excessive pressure. If you damage a socket, you will have to return the VIP6-80 to the factory for repair.

Step 4 Gently push the DIMM into the socket until the socket tabs close over the ends of the DIMM. (See Figure 11.) If necessary, rock the DIMM gently back and forth to seat it properly.

Step 5 Check to see if the DIMM is seated properly. If the DIMM appears misaligned, carefully remove it and reseat it in the socket. Push the DIMM firmly back into the socket until first one and then the other socket tab moves into place.

Step 6 Repeat Step 1 through Step 5 above if you are replacing more than one DIMM.

This completes the DIMM replacement procedure. Reinstall the VIP6-80 in the system. (Follow the steps in the “Installing a VIP6-80” section on page 24.) See the following section, “Checking the VIP6-80 Memory Upgrade,” as required.
