removed and a replacement installed. Replacement and installation instructions 

are described fully below. 

  A DIMM socket is located on the controller main circuit board. The controller 

board is a sensitive component and must be treated with care. 

If the memory module on the A16E-G2130-4 controller module is going to be replaced, 

the following factors must be considered when purchasing replacement DIMM modules: 

  Purchasing a DIMM module: To avoid the compatibility issues, it is 

recommended to contact Infortrend or your subsystem vendor for an updated list 

of compatible DIMM modules. We provide tested modules from reliable 

vendors with reliable chips. 

  DDR RAM DIMM modules supported: The subsystem supports 184-pin, 

registered, ECC-capable DDR RAM DIMM modules with memory capacities 

ranging from 512MB to 2GB. 

  Installation considerations: When installing the DIMM module, it is necessary 

to remove the controller module. The controller board is more susceptible to 

damage than other components and must therefore be handled with extreme 

care. ALL anti-static precautions specified in Section 2.3 must be strictly 

adhered to. 

  Secure installation: When replacing the DIMM module, make sure that the new 

DIMM module is firmly in place prior to installing the controller module. If the 

DIMM module is not firmly in place, the subsystem will not run and the 

controller will need to be removed and the DIMM module correctly installed.
