This completes the procedure for replacing DRAM SIMMs. Step 2 Hold the CIP2 handle with one hand and placing your other hand under the carrier to support the CIP2, guide it into the slot. Avoid touching the motherboard, adapters, or pins. Step 3 Place the back of the CIP2 in the slot and align the notches along the edges of the carrier with the grooves in the slot. Step 4 Keep the carrier parallel to the backplane and carefully slide the CIP2 into the slot until the back of the faceplate touches the ejector levers, then stop .
Caution Always use the ejector levers when installing or removing interface processor modules.
A module that is partially seated in the backplane will cause the system to halt and subsequently crash, and shoving or slamming the interface processor into the slot can damage the backplane and pins. Step 6 Use a screwdriver to tighten the two captive screws on the interface processor faceplate. This prevents the interface processor from becoming partially dislodged from the backplane and ensures proper EMI shielding. If you have a PCA, reattach the PCA connector of the Y cable.
