Installation of Compact Flash Upgrades
1.
Discharge any static electricity from your body by touching a grounded metal object.
2. Locate the 32 MB Compact Flash card on the main board. For more detailed information on component
locations, refer to FIG. 5.
3. Insert the tip of a grounded flathead screwdriver into one of the Card Removal Grooves (located on either
side of the card), and gently pry the card out of the slot. Repeat this process on the opposite card removal
groove. This alternating action causes the card to "wiggle" away from the on-board connector pins.
4. Slip your finger into the opening between the connector pins and the card, and push the card out to
remove it.
5. Remove the upgrade card from it’s anti-static bag.
6. Insert the upgrade card into the connector opening with the arrow facing towards the pins, then push it in
firmly until the contact pins are completely inside the flash card and securely attached to the connector
(FIG. 6).
7. To complete the upgrade process, close and re-secure the Integrated Controller enclosure using the
procedures outlined in the following section.
Closing and Securing the Outer Housing
Once the card has been replaced, close and re-secure the outer housing:
1. Align the cover back over the unit and gently slide-down the chassis until the openings are aligned over
their respective openings along both the sides and top of the unit.
2. Insert and secure the chassis housing screws back into their respective locations, as shown in FIG. 5 by
using a grounded screwdriver.
3. Re-install all connectors and apply power to the unit.
