Help with the Memory Configuration Wheel
This section provides advice for using the Memory Configuration Wheels. If
you have trouble following a step, look up the step in this section and read the
explanation.
Step 2-b
Step 2-d
Step 2-e
Step 3
Unscrew and remove the painted cover plates frmll the back
of your computer. If your computer also has an interface
card installed (i.e., a painted cover plate with a circuit board
attached), remove this also-it may be covering a RAM card.
Do not unscrew the unpainted, silver cover plates at the
bottom of a Series 300 computer.
Once the cover plates are off, you may see some cards inside.
Decide which of these cards are RAM cards by looking at the
colors of their plastic extractor levers:
Green and violet extractor levers identify a 1 Mbyte RAM
card.
Red and yellow extractor lever identify a 256 Kbyte RAM
card.
Two red extractor levers identify a 64 Kbyte RAM card.
Remove all 1 Mbyte, 256 Kbyte and 64 Kbyte RAM cards by
pulling their extractor levers toward you and sliding them out.
RAM cards may be damaged by static discharge, so be careful
not to touch the electrical components on the cards, and don't
place them on a charged surface such as a carpet or cloth.
If your screen remains blank, write down 0 and go on to Step
3.
The Bytes window is immediately below Step 2 on the wheel.
Turn the wheel until the number shown in the Bytes window
approximates the number you wrote down in Step 2-d.
Repeat this step for each 1 Mbyte RAM card you have. Do
not go on to Step 4 until you have set the switches on all of
your 1 Mbyte RAM cards.
