If the switch controller is installed in a chassis, remove it by following the
instructions in the
SwitchBlade Switch Controller Quick Install Guide
. The
quick install guide can be found on the CD-ROM shipped with each switch
controller and chassis, and can be downloaded from
www.alliedtelesis.com/support/software
.
Lay the switch controller on a flat surface.
2.
Prepare the DIMMs.
In an antistatic environment, remove the two DIMMs from their packing
material.
Be sure to observe ESD precautions.
Do not attempt to install DIMM without observing correct antistatic
procedures. Failure to do so may damage the DIMM and switch controller. If
you are unsure what the correct procedures are, contact your authorised Allied
Telesis distributor or reseller.
A chassis ground socket is provided on the front vent panel of the SwitchBlade chassis.
This socket is designed to be used in conjunction with an ESD wrist strap.
3.
To remove an existing DIMM.
Each DIMM is held in place by two retaining latches, one latch at each end
of the DIMM slot. Release these latches and carefully pull the DIMM from
the DIMM slot.
The location of DIMM slots is shown in Figure 8 on page 53.
4.
Align and insert the first DIMM.
Holding a DIMM at an angle of about 30 degrees from horizontal, align the
notches on its connector strips with the notches on an empty DIMM slot
(see Figure 8 on page 53).
Insert the DIMM into the DIMM slot, sliding it along the two DIMM
guides until the retaining latches automatically click into place. The latches
should hold the DIMM firmly in place.
5.
Insert the second DIMM.
Repeat Step 4 for the second DIMM.
For the switch to function, both DIMMs must be installed (giving 256 MBytes of
DRAM per switch controller).
