Type 5 Adapter Installation (Type 8641, Models MZO, MZV, MZS, MZE, MZL)

The PC Server Type 8641 (Models MZO, MZV, MZS, MZE, MZL) supports type 5 Adapters in Micro Channel expansion slots 5 and 6. However, because Type 5 adapters are longer and wider than standard Micro Channel adapters, the adapter support bracket must be repositioned.

NOTE: If the server was shipped with a PeerMaster adapter installed, the bracket has already been repositioned.
  1.  Remove the fan assembly:

    1.  Disconnect the three fan assembly cables from the power supply.

    2.    To avoid damage and ensure proper server operation, handle the fan assembly  carefully.

    3.  Remove the two screws that hold the fan assembly in place.
    4.  Remove the fan assembly by pulling it up and out.

       

  2.  Press the raised area in the middle of the bracket, then, press the  bracket toward the rear of the server and lift out. You might need a  screwdriver to release the bracket from the server.

     
  3.  Reposition the card guides on the adapter support bracket:

    1.  Lift the tabs on the top of the top card guide to release it from the  bracket.
    2.  Align the card guide tabs with the slots closest to the front of the  bracket. The card guide will extend beyond the bracket.
    3.  Hook the tabs on the bottom edge of the card guide on the flange on the  back of the bracket, then press the card guide forward until it snaps into  place.

  4.  Holding the bracket at an angle, insert the tabs on the back of the  card guide into the slots closer to the front of the server.
