It is highly recommended to get DIMMs from Barco. Please, refer to section
. If
you use other memory modules Barco can not guarantee for proper and stable system
function.
Please note that the versions EOS-3026-3/-4 and EOS-3327-0/-1 of the Processor use

Inserting additional memory
Memory modules are made of delicate electronic components that are extremely sensitive
to static electricity. Ordinary amounts of static from your clothes or work environment can
destroy them. Transport memory modules only in the original packaging as delivered from
the manufacturer. Handle them only by the edges. Do not touch the components. Use a
grounded workplace and wear a grounding wrist strap; at least, discharge your body's static
electricity by touching a grounded surface, e. g., a properly grounded system’s metal
chassis.
•
Open the case as described in Section
•
Locate the memory sockets: The 184-pin slots (
EOS-3026-3/4/5, EOS-3327-0/1/2/3
) respectively
168-pin slots (
EOS-3026-0/1/2
) are lined up parallel and you will find them near the CPU. Because the
number of pins is different on either side of the breaks, the module will only fit in the correct orientation.
•
Examine the memory modules before removing from the anti static bag. If there is any visible damage, do
not install the module and contact the manufacturer.
•
Do not remove the memory module from the anti static bag until you are ready to install it. Use a grounded
workplace. Do not lay parts on the anti static bags. Only the insides are anti static.
