16 QuickStart Guide CoreModule 800
4. Turn the CoreModule 800 over to access the bottom of the board and lay it on a flat anti-static
surface. See Figures 2-1 and 2-3.
5. Remove the existing SODIMM from the SODIMM socket before continuing.
Refer to the Step 4 in the proceeding procedure, Removing the SODIMM, and follow the
remaining steps in that procedure before continuing with the next step in this procedure.
6. Remove the SODIMM from the anti-static surface or the protective bag, handling the SODIMM
by the edges.
NOTE Ampro recommends using PC 2700 DDR 333 (333 Mbps, 166 MHz,
6 ns), +2.5V, 200-pin, DDR RAM SODIMM for maximum
performance. The PC 2100 DDR 266 (266 MBps, 133 MHz)
SODIMM will operate acceptably.
7. Ensure there is nothing in the SODIMM socket that would prevent the installation.
8. Insert the SODIMM into the socket at 45° angle to the bottom of the CoreModule 800 with the
components facing up. See Figure 2-3.
The SODIMM card edge and socket are keyed to install into the socket in only one orientation.

9. Press the edges of the SODIMM down between the latches, until the latches snap into place.
See Figure 2-4.
The latches should open to accept the SODIMM without any resistance. If you encounter any
resistance, you may not have inserted the SODIMM far enough into the socket.
