Installing Drdram (Rimms) - Advantech MIC-3385 Manual

1.8 Installing DRDRAM (RIMMs)

The MIC-3385 memory provides for two channels and four184-pin
RIMM sockets. The socket pair on each channel can be filled with
any combination of RIMMs in any size, giving a total memory
capacity up to 1 GB per channel. The RIMM combinations should
be the same. Use dummy RIMM modules if there are unused
sockets.
The procedure for installing RIMMs appears below. Please follow
these steps carefully.
1. Ensure that all power supplies to the system are switched Off.
2. Install the RIMM modules. Install the RIMM so that its gold
pins point down into the RIMM socket.
3. Slip the RIMM into the socket and carefully fit the bottom of
the card against the connectors.
4. Gently push the RIMM into the socket, until the clips on the
ends of the RIMM sockets snap into place.
5. Check to ensure that the RIMM is correctly seated and all
connector contacts touch. The RIMM should not move
around in its socket.
NOTE:
NOTE:
The MIC-3385 is limited in its RIMM module
space. Therefore, please be careful when
purchasing the RIMM modules for the MIC-3385.
If you have questions, please contact Advantech.
The RIMM modules can only fit into sockets one
way, in accordance with the keyed notches along
the bottom edge of the modules. Their gold pins
must point down into the RIMM socket.
