The connector on the MBus module should face the appropriate
MBus slot. See Figure 11-3.
Note - MBus slot 0 (the lower MBus slot) must have a module installed or the system will not work.

Make sure the module is fully inserted into the socket.
Caution -
Excessive force may bend or damage the pins.See Figure 11-4. If the module is not fully inserted into the MBus slot connector, the card retainers may not lock over the edge of the module.

Figure 11-5 Removing a Double-Width MBus Module
See Figure 11-6.
Double-width MBus modules have a backplate like an SBus card. It installs like an SBus card. The connector on the MBus module should face the appropriate MBus slot. See Figure 11-6.
Note - MBus slot 0 (the lower MBus slot) must have a module installed or the system will not work.
See Figure 11-7. Make sure the module is fully inserted into the socket.
Caution -
Your hands should be on either side of the MBus connector. Do not press on both ends of the MBus module because there is only one connector on the module.

Install the washers vertically. See Figure 11-11.
The system board has four locations for SBus cards. See Figure 11-9.

This section describes how to remove and replace:
The SPARCstation 10 system supports two DSIMM capacities:
The installation and removal procedure is the same for both DSIMM capacities.
Caution -
DSIMMs installed in your SPARCstation 10 system must be specifically designed to operate in it. Do not remove DSIMMs from a different Sun system and install them in a SPARCstation 10 system.See Figure 11-20.
Figure 11-20 DSIMM Slot Locations on the System Board
Figure 11-21 Pulling the DSIMM Ejection Lever
Slot J0202 is reserved for a VSIMM in the S10BSX service code model. Slot J0301 may be used for a VSIMM, NVSIMM, or a DSIMM. You can use all other slots for DSIMMs.
See Figure 11-20.
Table 11-1 shows the installation sequence.

----------------------------------------------------------
Note - Slot J0201 must always have a DSIMM installed in order for the system to function properly. Install each additional DSIMM following the sequence shown in Table 11-1.
See Figure 11-22. Be sure the center vertical chip is visible and that the key notch is as shown.

See Figure 11-23.
See Figure 11-23.
Figure 11-23 Inserting the DSIMM Using the DSIMM Insertion Tool
Note - VSIMMs are only supported on the S10BSX service code systems.
Two VSIMM capacities are supported:
Note the VSIMM slot location (J0202 or J0301) of the VSIMM you need to remove. See Figure 11-25.
See Figure 11-24 and Figure 11-28.
See Figure 11-25.
Note -
Slot J0201 always must have a DSIMM installed. Slot J0202 is reserved
for the single factory-installed VSIMM in the S10BSX service code model.
Slot J0301 may be used for a DSIMM or an additional optional VSIMM. When
slot J0301 is used for a VSIMM, the auxiliary video board must be installed on
the system board to enable video output.

Note - If you installed a VSIMM in slot J0301, you must install an auxiliary video board on the system board. This board provides video output for the VSIMM. See Section 11.3.4, "Auxiliary Video Board."
Caution -
The NVSIMM must be specifically designed to operate in the SPARCstation 10 system. Do not remove an NVSIMM from a different Sun system and install it in a SPARCstation 10 system.See Figure 11-28.
Figure 11-28 Using the NVSIMM Ejector Lever
See Figure 11-29.
Figure 11-29 Removing the NVSIMM - Rear View
There are four double-width SIMM connectors on the mother board. However, only two of the small slots have pins installed. Install the NVSIMM in the fourth slot, J0301 as shown in Figure 11-30.
Figure 11-30 NVSIMM Location on the System Board
See Figure 11-31.
Caution -
Once you turn the battery ON do not move or remove the jumper. Any data contained in the NVSIMM memory will be lost if the jumper is moved.

See Figure 11-32.
Figure 11-32 Aligning the NVSIMM in the Socket - Rear View
Note - Use care when lining up the center notch on the NVSIMM with the connector frame. If the notch is not properly lined up the NVSIMM could be damaged when you attempt to press it firmly in place.
See Figure 11-33.
The insertion tool is not as long as the NVSIMM. See Figure 11-33.
Use an equal force with both hands to prevent damage to the NVSIMM and socket.
Figure 11-33 Installing the NVSIMM
Caution -
Ensure that the NVSIMM is firmly seated in the socket. If it is not, serious errors could occur when you power on the system.Do not leave the tool inside the system.
If you install a VSIMM in slot J0301, you must install an auxiliary video board into the system to provide video output for the second VSIMM. The SPARCstation 10 system can accommodate one auxiliary video board.
See Figure 11-34.

This section describes how to set the following jumpers:
There are two serial port jumpers on the system board. See Figure 11-48. The jumpers are factory-set in RS423 mode. The ports can be re-set as RS232 mode (for connection to a X.25 network in Europe or Australia).
Note - The serial port jumper is the only jumper block you need to set for the S10BSX service code model.
To move the jumper settings from RS423 mode to RS232 mode:
See Figure 11-48.
Figure 11-48 Setting the Serial Port Jumpers
Note - There are no clock speed jumper on the S10BSX service code. The S10BSX service code model system clock speed runs only at 80 MHz. No action is necessary for the S10BSX service code.
This section describes the jumper settings for two different types of system boards - a system board with three jumper blocks to set the clock speed and a system board with one jumper block to set the clock speed. You must set the system clock speed jumpers on the S10 service code system board to ensure correct operation of the MBus module. Use Table 11-3 and Table 11-4 to determine the correct jumper settings for your system. Use Table 11-3 if you know your system model number; or use Table 11-4 to find the jumper settings based on your MBus module numbers.

If the system has three clock speed jumpers, See the next section "System Boards with Three Clock Speed Jumpers J1401, J1403, J1404." If the system has one clock speed jumper, See the section "Single Clock Speed Jumper - System Boards With Clock Speed Jumper J1401."
This type of board has three jumpers (J1401, J1403, J1404). All three jumpers must be set for either mode A operation, or mode B operation, based on the system model number or MBus modules installed.
See Table 11-3 or Table 11-4 and Figure 11-49 or Figure 11-50. Move the jumpers to the correct positions using needlenose pliers.
Note - There is no jumper for clock speed on the S10BSX service code model.
This type of board has only one jumper (J1401). This jumper must be set for either mode A operation or mode B operation, based on your system model number or MBus modules installed.
See Table 11-3 or Table 11-4 and Figure 11-51 or Figure 11-52. Move the jumpers to the correct positions using needlenose pliers.
Table 11-5 and Figure 11-53 show the ISDN jumper configuration and location on the S10 service code system board.

Note - Inserting the chip backwards will damage the chip.
This section describes how to remove and replace the NVRAM (Non-Volatile Random Access Memory) chip.
See Figure 11-54 or Figure 11-55.
Gently wiggle the chip carrier as necessary.
See Figure 11-54 or Figure 11-55.
The carrier is keyed so the NVRAM can be installed only one way.
