Installation Sequence

Follow this sequence of steps to ensure the proper installation of any
optional equipment. Before you begin, observe the following
precautions:

!

WARNING:

  To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces,

allow the internal system components to cool before touching them.

!

WARNING:

  To reduce the risk of electrical shock, fire, or damage to

the equipment, do not plug telecommunications/telephone connectors
into the network interface controller (NIC) receptacles.

CAUTION:

  Static electricity can damage the electronic components

of the workstation or optional equipment. Before beginning these
procedures, ensure that you are discharged of static electricity by
briefly touching a grounded metal object.

1.  Turn off the workstation and disconnect the power cord from the

grounded AC outlet.

2.  Disconnect the keyboard, monitor, network cable, and other

external equipment connected to the workstation.

3.  Open the workstation by removing its workstation access panel.

See “Removing the Workstation Access Panel” in this chapter for
instructions.

4.  If you are installing or removing drives in the front bays, see

“Removing the Front Bezel” in this chapter for instructions.

5.  Install any optional equipment, such as memory, additional drives,

expansion boards, processors, or batteries. See the appropriate
sections in this chapter or the appendixes for installation
instructions. Also refer to the documentation provided with the
optional equipment.

6.  Replace the front bezel and the workstation access panel, if

necessary.

7.  Reconnect the keyboard, monitor, network cable, and other

external devices.

8.  Plug the power cord into a grounded AC outlet.

9.  Turn on the monitor, workstation, and any external devices you

installed.

10.  Reconfigure the workstation, if necessary.

11.  Test the workstation (optional) using the TEST utility.
