Install Encore/ST G4 Duet Processor Upgrade Card
1. Remove the Encore processor upgrade card from the anti-static package,
making sure to handle the card by the edges (Figure 6). Place the processor
card you removed from the computer into the anti-static package and store it
in a safe place.
2. Hold the Encore card with the connector facing up (Figure 7). Carefully
remove the cap covering the connector; place the cap on the original proces-
sor card’s connector.
3. Turn the Encore card over and hold it so the Sonnet logo appears upside
down; note the location of the three screw holes and the connector
(Figure 8).
4. Align the Encore card’s three screw holes with the three threaded posts
on the logic board, then set the card gently on top of the posts (Figure 9).
Verify the connectors are lined up, then, grasping the card by its edges, gen-
tly press it straight down until the connectors are completely coupled.
5. Secure the Encore card to the logic board with the three screws you removed
previously; do not overtighten the screws (Figure 10).
