Installing the SIMM Modules
Hardware Installation
The KTM-609/16 memory board uses IBM standard 72-pin SIMMs and, in some
cases, the memory may already be installed or soldered to the board. If you do not
plan to add or remove any SIMMs, you can skip this section and go to "Installing the
KTM-609/16 Board."
Installing the SIMM Modules
The KTM-609/16 board has 3 board types for memory configurations. Type I has four
sockets labeled P1, P2, P3, and P4 with no memory soldered to the board. Type II has
4MB soldered and three available sockets to add additional SIMM modules. Type III
has 8MB soldered and two additional sockets for adding SIMM memory modules. All
three board types support up to 16MB of memory.

The SIMMs are available in 1MB (KTM1000/M70), 2MB (KTM2000/M70), and
4MB (KTM4000/M70) memory capacities. Be sure to observe the precautions below
when installing the SIMMs. The SIMM modules are installed in descending order
starting with the higher capacity SIMMs first. The first socket is P1, then P2, and so
on.
The following chart illustrates various SIMM combinations and their corresponding
socket locations for the KTM-609/16 Type I board which consists of four SIMM
sockets (yours may have soldered memory with less sockets).
