Page 6 Installation Instructions: AM-338 / AM-339 RJE Board Set
5.1Step by Step Installation for Eagle Computers
Follow the instructions in your
Eagle Computer Service Manual
that explain how to
remove your computer’s top cover. The service manual also includes configuration
drawings for AM-137, AM-319-00, and AM-319-10 boards. These drawings show the
location of the I/O expansion connectors. The AM-338 board must be plugged into a
specific connector in Eagle computers:
In the Eagle 100 computer, the AM-338 board plugs into the J6 I/O
expansion connector.
In the Eagle 200 computer, the AM-338 board plugs into the J6 I/O
expansion connector.
In the Eagle 300 computer, the AM-338 board plugs into the J11 I/O
expansion connector.
If you must remove an AM-314 or AM-318 serial I/O board in order to install the AM-338
board, remember to remove the TRMDEF and SETJOB statements from your
AMOS32.INI file supporting the serial I/O board you are removing.
The AM-338 board should be inserted into the appropriate slot with the component side
of the AM-338 board facing your computer’s rear panel. The AM-338 must be inserted
into the expansion slot at a slight angle and after you feel the board settle into the slot,
you rotate it into an upright position. When the AM-338 is properly positioned, the metal
retainer clips at each end of the expansion slot will click into position, locking the board
in place.
Once the AM-338 board is installed, you are ready to install the AM-339 board:
1.Before you install the AM-339 board, make sure the jumpers are
configured for DTE as shown in Figure 1.
2.The AM-339 board installs in the bottom of your Eagle computer’s drive
mounting bracket. The illustration on the next page shows the AM-339
board sitting in its mounting position. Before positioning the board inside
your chassis, plug the cable with the DB9 and DB25 connectors
(DWB-10314-00) into the AM-339 board’s J3 and J2 connectors. Once the
board has been installed, the J3 and J2 connectors are difficult to access.
3.Once the cable has been attached to the AM-339 board, set the board into
position inside the chassis. Make sure the board is oriented as shown in
the illustration. Install the two #6-32 phillips-head screws that hold the
AM-339 board in place.
The screws included in the installation kit are only .18" long; if
longer screws are used, they will hit the bottom of the
AM-339 board and cause an electrical short.
