Adding/Removing Modules
Wohler’s standard models typically do not populate all five slots,
allowing for the addition of other modules. This section describes the
procedures for adding new cards and removing existing cards.
Precautions
Before unpacking your new module, make sure you have a static-free
surface on which to work.
Requirements
• A small Phillips screwdriver
• A wrench, preferably an adjustable one
• If you are adding hardware, the components of the option kit you
want to add
• If you are removing hardware, a static-free bag or container
Im por ta nt :
After adding or removing a card from the monitor, the software will
automatically recognize the new card configuration, and automatically
implement all appropriate changes to the menu system. No software
upgrades or further modifications are necessary. However, it may take
two minutes for the unit to boot the first time after a card swap. A
message will briefly be displayed, and the user will have to press
Initialize to proceed.
CA UTION !
Static discharge can cause serious damage to sensitive semiconductor
devices. Avoid handling the circuit boards in high static environments
such as carpeted areas, and when synthetic or wool fiber clothing is
worn. Touch the frame to dissipate static charge before removing
boards from a frame, and always exercise proper grounding
precautions when handling circuit boards.
Do NOT add or remove processor cards with system power applied.
