Installing the Flash Memory Card in a RP
If there are dual RPs, the PCMCIA slots in the primary RP are designated slot 0
and slot 1. If there is a second RP, the PCMCIA slots in the second RP are
designated sec-slot 0 and sec-slot 1.
PCMCIA slot 0 is the bottom slot and slot 1 is the top slot. See
Flash memory card slots on each RP can be used at the same time.
Note
The following procedures are generic procedures that can be used for a Flash
memory card in either slot position.
To install a Flash memory card, follow these steps:
Step 1
Facing the RP card, hold the Flash memory card with the connector end of the
card toward the slot and the label facing up. See
Step 2
Insert the card into the appropriate slot until the card completely seats in the
connector at the back of the slot and the ejector button pops out toward you.
Removing the Flash Memory Card from a RP
To remove a Flash memory card:
•
Press the appropriate ejector button until the card is free of the connector at
the back of the slot. See
.
•
Pull the card from the slot and place it in an antistatic sack to protect it from
ESD damage.
The Flash memory card is keyed for proper insertion. The ejector button will not
pop out unless the card is inserted correctly. Part of the card remains outside the
slot even when the card is properly seated. Do not attempt to force the card deeper
into the slot after the ejector button pops out.
