Add or Remove the Memory
Module

The CPU board in the computer has two sockets. Each socket
supports a Dual In-Line Memory Module (DIMM).

For a current list of memory modules available for your computer,
refer to the Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley website

Guidelines for Replacing Memory

When adding memory to the CPU board, follow these guidelines.

Always handle the memory cards by the ends not by the
memory module contacts.

Store memory in a sealed anti-static bag when it is not installed.

Never install or remove memory with the power turned on.

TIP

It is recommended that you use only qualified Allen-Bradley
parts.

ATTENTION

Failure to follow proper safety precautions could result in
severe electrical shock and/or damage to the computer.

ATTENTION

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage the computer and
components. Make sure you work in a static-safe environment
and wear a grounding strap whenever handling circuit boards,
power supply, memory modules or other internal components.
