You must take special precautions when moving the processor modules in
or out of the XMI card cage.
1. Be sure, when inserting a module in or removing it from the XMI card
cage, that no part of the module comes in contact with another module
or a cable.
2. When you swap out a module, place it in an ESD box or on an ESD mat
before you install the new module.
If you place the module on an ESD mat, make sure the mat is on a
stable, uncluttered surface, with side 1 of the module facing up (the side
with the heat sinks). Do not put it on the top of the system cabinet. And
never slide the module across any surface. The leads on the components
are fragile and can be damaged by contact with fingers or any surface.
3. Hold the XMI card cage handle while removing or inserting the module.
If it is not held in place, the handle can spring down and damage the
module.
4. When inserting a module in the card cage, grasp it as shown in
Figure A–2 or in Figure A–3, being careful not to touch any 25 mil
devices, and slide it slowly and gently into the slot.
5.
Do not attach the repair tag to the module.
Place the repair tag in the plastic bag attached to the bottom of the
ESD box. Allowing the repair tag to come in contact with the module
can cause damage to a component.
