1. Safety Precautions
1.1 Warning!
Always completely disconnect the power cord from your chassis whenever
you work with the hardware. Do not make connections while the power is on.
Sensitive electronic components can be damaged by sudden power surges.
Only experienced electronics personnel should open the PC chassis.
1.2 Caution!
Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the
CPU card. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric
charges. As a safety precaution, use agrounding wrist strap at all times.
Place all electronic components in a static-dissipative surface or
static-shielded bag when they are not in the chassis.

4. Hardware Configuration for ECM-3610 Micro Module
4.1 Installation Procedure
1. Unplug the power adapter from EES-3610.
2. Make sure all external cables are unattached.
3. Unscrew the front panel.
4. Disassemble the top cover for HDD installation, or
5. Disassemble the bottom cover for memory and/or CF card installation.
4.2 Installing DRAM (SODIMM)
4.2.1 System Memory
The reverse side of the ECM-3610 contains a socket for 144-pin dual inline memory
module (SODIMM). The socket uses 3.3 V unbuffered synchronous DRAM (SDRAM).
SODIMM module is available in capacities of 32, 64, 128, or 256 MB. The socket can be
filled in the SODIMM of any size, giving your ECM-3610 single board between 32 and 256
MB of memory.
4.2.2 Supplementary Information About SODIMM
Your ECM-3610 acceptsboth regular and PC-100 SDRAM SODIMM Module (with or
without parity). Single-sided modules are typically 64 MB; double-sided modules are
usually 32 or 128 MB.
4.2.3 Memory Installation Procedures
Press the SODIMM module right down into the socket, until you hear a click. This is when
the two handles have automatically locked the memory module into the correct position of
the SODIMM socket. (See Figure below) To take away the memory module, just push both
handles outward, and the memory module will be ejected by the mechanism in the socket.
