Installing a Processor Power Module

Every processor supplied by Compaq comes with a Processor Power Module

(DC-to-DC converter). Each PPM must be installed in the slot adjacent to its

processor to provide power to that processor. If the processor is installed in

slot 1, install the PPM in slot 1. If the processor is installed in slot 2, install the

PPM in slot 2.

The Processor Power Module is keyed to ensure correct alignment. A notch in

the bottom edge of the module, near the center, must align with a tab in the

mounting bracket. The notch and tab will not line up if the module is turned

the wrong way.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the

internal system components to cool before touching.

Align the key slot in the bottom edge of the Processor Power Module

with the tab in the expansion slot. The module will not seat if turned the

wrong way.

Open the latches on the PPM socket 1.

Insert the module straight into a socket on the system board 2.
