Installing a RAM or ROM SIMM

A RAM SIMM provides the plotter with extra

memory. A ROM SIMM contains new

firmware code to override the internal

firmware code.

1 Make sure that the plotter is switched

OFF and that neither the power cord nor

an interface cable is connected.

Before handling a SIMM, either put on a

grounding wrist strap and attach the end to

the metal chassis of the plotter, or touch the

outer metal surface of the plotter with your

hand. Otherwise, static electricity from your

body could damage the SIMM.

3 Take the SIMM out of its bag, holding the

SIMM only by the edges.

4 With the SIMM's small notch on the left

and the metallic edge away from you, load

the SIMM into the slot

- nearest to you (RAM SIMM)
- furthest from you (ROM SIMM)

To do this, first hold the SIMM at an

angle, and then gradually push it back

until it clicks vertically into place.
