Installing DRAM (SIMMs)

You can install anywhere from 1 MB to 32 MB of on-board
DRAM memory using 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16 MB 72-pin SIMMs (Single
In-Line Memory Modules). Access time should be 70 nsec. or
less.

Installing SIMMs

NOTE:
The procedure for installing SIMMs appears below. Please follow
these steps carefully.
1. Ensure that all power supplies to the system are switched Off.
2. Install the SIMM card. Install the SIMM so that its gold pins
point down into the SIMM socket.
3. Slip the SIMM into the socket at a 45 degree angle and
carefully fit the bottom of the card against the connectors.
4. Gently push the SIMM into a perpendicular position until the
clips on the ends of the SIMM sockets snap into place.
5. Check to ensure that the SIMM is correctly seated and all
connector contacts touch. The SIMM should not move around
in its socket.
