Note: If you are installing a mix of 256KB and 512KB SIMM’s, then you must install the 256KB SIMM’s first, starting at BANK 0.

When you install 1MB SIMM modules on the board, you must only use 1MB SIMM modules throughout the board.

Note: If you are adding base memory, then switches 1-5 should specify a 1MB starting address.

If there is already expansion memory installed, the starting address of the adapter must follow the last address of the existing memory.
