3.5 Installing or Replacing a Module
Installing the hyperSPARC Module in MBus Slot 0 (Lower Slot)
Warning: The heatsinks on MBus modules may be hot. Use caution when removing or installing MBus
modules and avoid contact with the heatsinks. Hold MBus modules only by the edges.
To install a hyperSPARC module in the lower slot:
1. Make sure the wrist strap is securely attached to your wrist and the metal casing of the power supply.
The wrist strap comes with your hyperSPARC module.
2. Make sure the card retainers for the module are pushed back. Refer to Figure 3-9.
3. Open the protective packaging and take out the hyperSPARC module.
4. Insert the back edge of the module between the metal (lower) and plastic (upper) tabs on the back
panel.
The connector on the module should be facing MBus slot 0, the lower slot. Refer to Figure 3-9.

Hold the corners of the MBus module and press down firmly until the module is seated.
Caution: Excessive force may bend or damage pins.
Note: MBus slot 0, the lower slot, must have a module installed or the system will not work.
The top, upper slot—MBus slot 1—is optional and is used only for systems with a dual-module configuration.
