1.2Extensions and conversions

Second processor

The system board can be upgraded with a second processor. Only processors of the same type may be used on the system board. The second processor must have the same clock frequency as the first processor.

Extension of the main memory

The eight slots for the main memory are suitable for PC2-3200 DDR DIMM memory modules. Their organization in four memory banks, 0 to 3, allows fast memory access with two-way interleaving.

Memory modules must always be installed in pairs. A memory bank must always be fully equipped and with the same type of memory modules.

Additional accessible drives

The accessible drives available are a floppy disk drive and a CD-ROM/DVD drive. The drives can be installed in the two top bays. The left-hand bay is intended for a 3.5 x 0.5 inch floppy drive or a LocalView module, while the right- hand bay takes a 5.25 x 0.5 inch CD-ROM/DVD drive.

LocalView module (alphanumeric system display)

The LocalView module gives you the option of displaying system information and hardware system faults alphanumerically. This is an intelligent module with a microcontroller and its own memory, which functions independently of the server system.

The LocalView module consists of an LCD display panel and a toggle switch, both accommodated in a suitable mount. The mechanism used allows the LCD display panel to be pulled out and opened out.

For more information on operation and display modes, see the documentation for the LocalView module [6].
