Contents

These release notes discuss the following topics:

Upgrading the Memory

You can upgrade the memory in your Sensor from 64 or 128 MB of RAM to 256 or 512 MB of RAM respectively.

The following procedure details how to upgrade the memory in the Sensor.


Note To determine the amount of memory on your Sensor, look at the label on the back of the unit. If you cannot physically access the Sensor or the label is lost, you can determine the amount of memory by logging into the Sensor as root and running the dmesg command.


Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install or replace this equipment.

To upgrade the memory, perform these steps:


Warning During this procedure, wear grounding wrist straps to avoid ESD damage. Do not directly touch the backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself.


Step 1 As user root power off the Sensor by typing:

init 0

Step 2 Remove the three screws on the top cover of the Sensor.

Step 3 Remove the cover.

Step 4 Replace the cover and screws.

Step 5 Power up the Sensor by pressing the power switch.
