Removing and Installing the Battery and Battery Cable on PERC Controllers
Installing the TBBU on a PERC x/E Adapter
This section describes the procedure to install the memory module on a PERC
x/E Adapter.
CAUTION:
Only trained service technicians are authorized to remove the system
cover and access any of the components inside the system. Before performing any
procedure, see your Product Information Guide for complete information about
safety precautions, working inside the computer, and protecting against
electrostatic discharge.
NOTE:
The TBBU on the PERC x/E Adapter consists of a dual in-line memory
module (DIMM) and a battery backup unit (BBU).
1 Remove the memory module in an antistatic environment.
NOTE:
When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping
carton, do not remove the component from the antistatic packing material
until you are ready to install the component. Just before unwrapping the
antistatic package, be sure to discharge static electricity from your body.
NOTE:
Handle all sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible,
use antistatic floor pads and work bench pads.
NOTE:
Never touch the gold leads and do not bend the memory module.
2 Align the memory module so that the keyed edge of the memory module is
placed exactly on top of the physical divider on the memory socket of the
controller. This will avoid damage to the memory module.
3 Insert the memory module on the memory socket of the controller and
apply a smooth, downward pressure on both ends or on the middle of the
memory module until the retention clips fall into the allotted slots on
either side of the memory module. Figure 4 displays the installation of
a memory module on a PERC x/E Adapter.
