Emerson MVME55006E Manuel D’Utilisation

To upgrade or install a RAM5500 module, refer to and proceed as follows:

1. Attach an ESD strap to your wrist. Attach the other end of the ESD strap to the 

chassis as a ground. The ESD strap must be secured to your wrist and to ground 
throughout the procedure.

2. Perform an operating system shutdown. Turn the AC or DC power off and remove 

the AC cord or DC power lines from the system. Remove the chassis or system 
cover(s) as necessary for access to the VME boards.

3. Carefully remove the MVME5500 from its VME card slot and lay it flat, with 

connectors P1 and P2 facing you.

4. Inspect the RAM5500 module that is being installed on the MVME5500 host board 

to ensure that standoffs are installed in the four mounting holes on the module.

5. With standoffs installed in the four mounting holes on the RAM5500 module, align 

the standoffs and the P1 connector on the module with the four holes and the P4 
connector on the MVME5500 host board and press the two connectors together 
until they are firmly seated in place.

6. Turn the entire assembly over and fasten the four short Phillips screws to the 

standoffs of the RAM5500.
