Assembling a Processor Adapter and an Option Adapter
Overview
If a TSX Momentum Option Adapter is used, it is mounted between a Momentum
M1 Processor Adapter and a Momentum I/O base in a three-tiered stack.
This section contains guidelines, safety precautions and a procedure for
assembling a Processor Adapter and an Option Adapter.
The next section describes how to mount the assembled adapters on an I/O base.
Guidelines
We recommend that you snap together the Option Adapter and the M1 Processor
Adapter before mounting them on the I/O base.
Connection
Points Between
Adapters
The Option Adapter and M1Processor connect at these four points:
The plastic snap extensions on the two sides of the M1 fit into the two slots on
the sides of the Option Adapter
The 12-pin ATI connectors on the center of the back walls of the two units mate
together
The 34-pin processor extension connectors that run along the left sidewalls of
the components mate together
No Tools
Required
The components can be snapped together by hand; no assembly tools are
required. A flat-head screw driver is required to disassemble the unit.
