Installation
Figure 3-4 display the notch marks and what they should look like on your DIMM
memory module.
DIMMs have 184-pins and two notches, that will match with the onboard DIMM
socket. DIMM modules are installed by placing the chip firmly into the socket at a
90-degree angle and pressing straight down (Figure 3-5) until it fits tightly into the
DIMM socket.

Carefully follow the steps below in order to install the DIMMs:
To avoid generating static electricity and damaging the DIMM, ground yourself by
touching a grounded metal surface or using a ground scrap before you touch the
DIMM.
1. Do not touch the connector of the DIMM. Dirt residue may cause a malfunction.
2. Hold the DIMM with its notch to the front side of the PEB-4700VLA series and
insert it completely into the socket. A DIMM should be inserted into the inner
socket first. Guiding the hole at each end of the DIMM over the retaining post at
each end of the DIMM socket.
3. If you install two DIMMs, install the second DIMM using the same procedure as
above.
4. If DIMM does not go in smoothly, do not force it. Pull it all the way out and try
again.
5. Make sure the DIMM is properly installed and locked by the tabs on both sides of
the socket.
