Fitting Memory Cards in the CPU

Memory Expansion
With the CPU 417-4 and CPU 417-4 H you can expand the work memory with
memory submodules.
The following points are important:
1. If only one submodule is inserted, l must be in slot 1.
2. You may only insert a second submodule if a 4 Mbyte-submodule is inserted in
slot 1.
The following combinations are then possible:
Note
Only use the memory cards intended for the particular CPU.
Warning
!
The modules can be damaged.
Failure to observe ESD guidelines can result in damage to both the CPU and
memory cards.
Observe the ESD guidelines when fitting memory cards.
Fitting Memory Cards in the CPU
Proceed as follows:
1. Remove the cover from the left side of the CPU by loosening the three screws.
2. Push the first memory card down through an angle of approximately 45
slot 1 (see Figure 2-3). Note the cutout at the front of the card (polarity reversal
protection).
3. Push the memory card down until the tabs in the slot slide into the
corresponding cutouts on the side of the card. Make sure that the metal flag at
the end of the card lies on the metal edge of the module.
4. If necessary, insert the second memory card in slot 2 in the same way (see
Figure 2-3).
