Install Your Memory
Module

Always turn off power to the controller before removing the processor
or inserting or removing the memory module. This guards against
possible damage to the module and also undesired processor faults.
Memory modules are mounted in carriers or have connectors that are
keyed to guard against improper installation.

1. If the processor module is installed in the chassis, remove the

module by pressing the retainer clips at both the top and bottom
of the module and sliding it out.

2. Locate the socket (or connector if you have an SLC 5/03,

SLC 5/04, or SLC 5/05 processor) on the processor board. Then
place the memory module into the socket or onto the connector
and press firmly in place.

ATTENTION

To avoid potential damage to the memory modules, handle

them by the ends of the carrier or edges of the plastic housing.

Skin oil and dirt can corrode metallic surfaces, inhibiting

electrical contact. Also, do not expose memory modules to

surfaces or areas that may typically hold an electrostatic

charge. Electrostatic charges can alter or destroy memory.
