Service manual
You must take special precautions when moving the processor modules in
or out of the XMI card cage.
1. Be sure, when inserting the module in or removing it from the XMI
card cage, that no part of the module comes in contact with another
module or a cable. The leads on the components are fragile and can be
damaged by contact with fingers or any surface.
2. When you swap out a module, place it in the correct ESD box before
you install the new module.
3. Hold the XMI card cage handle while removing or inserting the module.
If it is not held in place, the handle can spring down and damage the
module.
4. When inserting the module in the card cage, grasp it as shown in
Figure 5–9, being careful not to touch any 25 mil devices, and slide
it slowly and gently into the slot.
5. Do not attach the repair tag to the module.
Place the repair tag in the plastic bag attached to the bottom of the
ESD box. Allowing the repair tag to come in contact with the module
can cause damage to a component.
