Installing the Octel 300 Motherboard Assembly
To install the motherboard assembly, use the following procedure:
Caution!
The motherboard must be aligned precisely to ensure
correct card engagement. To accomplish this, make
sure to follow the instructions exactly.
1. Install the filter power harness from the old motherboard on the new motherboard. Refer to
Figure 9-21 for correct installation.
2. Remove the Option Control Chip (OCC) from the old motherboard and install it in the new
motherboard. Refer to the Option Control Chip Replacement section in this chapter for removal and
installation procedures.
3. Hold the new motherboard up to the cabinet, and install a screw in the top, center screwhole to hold
it in place. Pass the power harness to the fan tray through the small, rectangular cutout in the bottom
of the motherboard.
4. Screw in the remaining 17 screws along the top and bottom of the motherboard, so that it is just able
to move with a minimal amount of distance between the screwheads and the motherboard. Do not
tighten screws yet.
