Tools required: small flathead screwdriver
1. Before installing the modules, determine their placement:
a.
Processor modules start at slot 0 and work up.
b. The KFTIA and KFTHA I/O modules (up to three) must be contiguous and
begin in slot 8.
c.
The first MS7CC memory module is in the highest-numbered open slot, the
next in the lowest-numbered open slot, and so on, alternating between
highest- and lowest-numbered open slots. (If one or more memory modules
are to be installed in slots 1–4, wait until processor modules have been
installed to be able to follow the "left to right" rule.)
d. Terminator modules (E2034–AA) go in all other slots Four are supplied
with the upgrade kit; any others needed are transferred from the 8200.
10. Ground yourself to the cabinet with the antistatic wrist strap.
11. Insert the I/O, memory, and terminator modules (if any) in the TLSB card cage.
(You will insert the processor modules in the procedure on the next page.)
CAUTION: To avoid damaging an EMI gasket, insert modules from left to
right. These gaskets can easily break, and a broken piece of gasket can
damage a module or the centerplane.
a.
Remove each module from its antistatic bag and release the spring-loaded
handles from the stops. To do this, push both handles toward the module
endplate and away from the stops.
b. Hold the module assembly by the endplate. Align the module with the card
guide and the cover with the rail (see Figure 7).
c.
Slide the module into the card cage as far as it will easily go.
d. When the module stops, check that the projections on the top and bottom of
the endplate are aligned with the slots in the card cage. If they are not,
remove the module and realign it.
e.
Push both handles at the same time to the module endplate. You will feel
the module make contact with the connectors at the centerplane. Release the
handles so they spring back into the stops.
12. Attach the I/O cables to the KFTIA and KFTHA modules.
