Safety Information DANGER An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place hazardous voltage on metal parts of the system or the devices that attach to the system. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the outlet is correctly wired and grounded to prevent an electrical shock.
Do not place the device on your system unit cover or on a metal table. v Take additional care when handling devices during cold weather, as heating reduces indoor humidity and increases static electricity. PCI Cryptographic Coprocessor Installation and Using Guide...
About This Book This book provides information about the PCI Cryptographic Coprocessor, how to install the coprocessor hardware, how to install the device drivers, and how to replace the batteries. Use this book together with your specific system unit and operating system documentation.

“Handling Static-Sensitive Devices” on page vi and “Special Considerations for Handling and Storage” on page 1. Notes: 1. Do not remove the PCI Cryptographic Coprocessor from its anti-static package at this time. 2. The PCI Cryptographic Coprocessor is a hot-pluggable device on some systems.
Go to “Installing the Coprocessor” on page 13. Then, perform the “Verifying Coprocessor Hardware Installation” procedure again. Note: If the message on your screen indicates the coprocessor is DEFINED a second time, you may need to call your service representative. PCI Cryptographic Coprocessor Installation and Using Guide...
If you continue to experience problems with the software installation, call your system support organization. Running Coprocessor Diagnostics Diagnostics are provided with the device driver software. If you must run diagnostics, refer to your system documentation for instructions. Chapter 4. Installing the PCI Cryptographic Coprocessor...

Chapter 5. Replacing Coprocessor Batteries This chapter describes how to replace the batteries on the PCI Cryptographic Coprocessor. Before beginning the procedure, read the following descriptive and cautionary materials. Four lithium batteries, wired in parallel, are mounted on the coprocessor to supply power to the components, including protected memory.
Page 26
13. Turn the computer on. The coprocessor runs its power-on self-test. 14. The batteries are lithium 3-volt batteries. Recycle or dispose of the old batteries as required by local law. You have completed the procedure for replacing the coprocessor batteries. PCI Cryptographic Coprocessor Installation and Using Guide...
