Opening Up the FlexPAC
When installing add-in cards into the FlexPAC, the outer casing and the card
retention plate must be removed. This section provides precautions and
procedures necessary for installing and removing add-in cards. The memory
modules are not user accessible. The FlexPAC must be returned to Kontron,
or a Kontron approved service center, for a memory upgrade. Contact
Kontron technical support for assistance.
WARNING: Disassembling the FlexPAC, other than for add -in card install ation,
will void the warranty.
Removing the Outer Casing
A 3mm hex driver is needed to remo ve the outer casing from the FlexPAC.
1. Turn the power switch“Off.” Disconnect the power cord and any other
external device cables connected to the system.
2. Always close the keyboard up against the main unit when opening up the
FlexPAC. This will protect the keyboard and the screen from receiving any
damage when removing the outer casing.
3. Place the unit face down on a flat, sturdy surface. The rear panel will be
facing upwards.
4. Using a 3mm hex driver, remove the six M4 hex screws securing the rear
panel of the unit (see Figures 5.1 & 5.2).
5. Gently slide the outer casing up and away from the main chassis (see
Figure 5.1).
