any module replacement.
Step 2
Turn off electrical power to the router. Leave the power cable plugged in to channel ESD voltages to
ground.
Step 3
Remove the cover.
Step 4

Standoffs
Step 6
Install the three standoffs into the system board in the attachment locations. Use a 1/4-inch nut driver to
tighten the standoffs. The locations for PVDM4 standoffs have white plastic grommets surrounding the
mounting hole location.
Step 7
Insert the PVDM4 into the ISC slot on the system board.
Note
Be sure to press firmly on the PVDM4 until the board seats onto the connector.
Step 8
Insert the screws from the accessory kit through the PVDM4 into the standoffs. Carefully tighten the
screws with a Phillips screwdriver (torque 6 to 8 in-lb. or 0.7 to 1.1 Nm).
Step 9
Check that the PVDM4 is installed correctly on the system board.
Step 10
Replace the cover.
Caution
When you remove or install the PVDM4, always wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, and ensure that it
makes good contact with your skin. Connect the equipment end of the wrist strap to the metal part of the
chassis.
Caution
Handle the PVDM4 by the edges only. PVDM4s are ESD-sensitive components and can be damaged by
mishandling.
