B. Hardware Installation
B.1 Before Installation
The ICP Controller is designed for minimum power consumption and maximum opera-
tional security. It therefore contains delicate electrical components (CMOS). In order to
avoid damages caused by electrostatic charges, the following warning must be observed
during installation:
Never take the ICP Controller out of the antistatic bag unless this is done at an anti-
static work place and the person handling the ICP Controller is secured against elec-
trostatic charge through wrist bands. If these instructions are not observed, the user
risks damage or destruction of the CMOS components of the ICP Controller !
B.2 Tools
Before installing, switch off the complete computer system and remove all cables including
the power cable. Open the case of the host computer with an appropriate screwdriver (usu-
ally a medium sized Philips screwdriver).
B.3 RAM Requirements
It is not possible to operate the ICP Controller without RAM.
The ICP Controller is delivered without RAM (0MB). The ICP Controller
must be operated with one unbuffered PC133 SO-DIMM/DIMM or one
unbuffered ECC PC133 SO-DIMM/DIMM . The ICP Controller can not be
operated with buffered SO-DIMM/DIMM. Details see below.
