System Board Tray Assembly
The system board contains the CPU, main memory, I/O section, and all of the circuitry and connections that control how the workstation’s hardware and operating system interact with each other. If any of the components on the system board are defective, you must remove and replace the system board.
Because the system board in the B2000 workstation is mounted on a tray, the following procedures explain how to remove and replace the system board tray assembly as a complete unit.
