Reassemble the option assembly with the new FRU as follows:
Step
Action
Comment
1
If the new FRU is a SIM
module, install it on the
frame buffer module.
2
Set switch 2 towards the B
marker on the frame buffer
module. This setting is at
66 Hz. If switch 2 is set
towards the opposite side of
the frame buffer module, the
setting is at 72 Hz.
Before installing the SPXg, ensure that switch
2 of the two-switch package on the frame buffer
module is in the position shown in Figure 6–12.
The switch may be a slide switch or rocker
switch.
The switch package is located as shown in
Figure 6–14. The switch labels A and B are on
the module. Ignore any switch identifiers on the
switch package. Switch 1 is inactive and can be
in either position.
3
Align the graphics module
and system module
intermodule connectors.
Mate the connectors by pressing down. The
module latches should snap into place to secure
the module.
4
Align and mate the frame
buffer module with the
graphics module.
5
Install the RFI gasket.
See Figure 6–13. Press the RFI gasket over
the video connector on the graphics subsystem
processor module. The angled top and sides
of the gasket face away from the connector
bracket. This compresses the gasket between
the connector and system box when the option is
installed.
