Preparing to Install the PMC Adapter Module
To prepare your system for installing the module:
1. Perform an orderly shutdown of the operating system. When the
console prompt appears, shut off the power.
Caution
Make sure you turn off power to the computer before you
insert or remove the module to avoid permanent damage to
the module or computer circuitry.
2. Remove the motherboard from the computer chassis according to
the instructions in your computer documentation.
3. If you have not already done so, attach an antistatic ground strap
to your wrist and clip the other end of the strap to the computer’s
chassis ground.
4. Remove the cover from the PMC slot.
5. Remove the module from the protective bag. The mounting
hardware, screws, and standoffs are on the module. If the
mounting hardware is misplaced, the replacement hardware is
M2.5x5 mm screws (PN 90-10959-01) and M2.5 mm standoffs
(PN 74-49014-04).
