PMC Carrier Board Installation
PCI mezzanine card (PMC) carrier boards mount above the RAM200
mezzanine and (if installed) PMC module on the MVME2603/2604 base
board. To install a PMC carrier board for additional PCI expansion, refer
to
Figure 1-20
and proceed as follows:
1. Attach an ESD strap to your wrist. Attach the other end of the ESD
strap to the chassis as a ground. The ESD strap must be secured to
your wrist and to ground throughout the procedure.
2. Perform an operating system shutdown. Turn the AC or DC power
off and remove the AC cord or DC power lines from the system.
Remove chassis or system cover(s) as necessary for access to the
VME modules.
!
Caution
Inserting or removing modules with power applied may result in damage
to module components.
!
Warning
Dangerous voltages, capable of causing death, are present in this
equipment. Use extreme caution when handling, testing, and adjusting.
3. Carefully remove the MVME2603/2604 from its VMEbus card slot
and lay it flat, with connectors P1 and P2 facing you.
!
Caution
Avoid touching areas of integrated circuitry; static discharge can damage
these circuits.
4. If PMC modules are to be installed on the carrier board, install the
modules at this point.
