SPXgt 24-Plane Option, Continued
Removing the
SPXgt 24-Plane
Option
The shape and size of the 24-plane frame buffer module prohibits
removing the SPXgt as an assembly. See Figure 6–15 and remove
the components as follows:
Step Action
1 Turn off the system power, move the monitor, and open
the system unit cover as described in System Preparation
.
2 Remove the plastic clip (not shown) that holds the
graphics subsystem processor module to the frame buffer
module.
NOTE
To prevent the 24-plane frame buffer from bending,
reform Step 4 by grasping the module just to the front
of
in Figure 6–15.
3 Lift the frame buffer tail bracket just enough to free it
from the ridge on the disk drive H-bracket .
4 Gently work the frame buffer module loose from the
graphics subsystem processor inter-module connectors
. The graphics subsystem processor module remains
connected to the system module.
5 Pull the frame buffer free of the RFI gasket . The
gasket remains in place, held by the video connector
bracket on the graphics subsystem processor module.
6 Release the board latches and lift the graphics
subsystem processor module free of the system module
connector .
7 Remove the graphics subsystem processor module from
the system box .
8 Remove the failed FRU.
