The PCMCIA Port
Your SPARCbook provides two PCM CIA slots, arranged one above the
other within a small opening. Slot 1 is nearest the keyboard top, and Slot
0 (zero) is furthest from the keyboard top. The PCMCIA port is
illustrated in Figure 10-2.

Removing the PCMCIA flap
The PCM CIA port's flap can be removed for convenience. This is
useful if you wish to install an interface card, such as a modem, which
uses a connecting cable. The door is retained by clips at its hinges. See
Figure 10-3.
To remove the PCMCIA port flap:
1.
Open the door to an angle of about 60 degrees.
2.
Pull firmly to release the hinge pins from the hinge clips.

with the door at an angle of about 60 degrees.
2.

place under the springs.
