important safety warnings

WARNING: Avoid Electrical Shocks. To avoid electrical shock, do not open the power supplies. There
Å
are no user-serviceable parts inside.
To avoid electrical shock and harm to your eyes by laser light, do not open the DVD laser module. The laser module should be serviced by service personnel only. Do not attempt to make any adjustment to the laser unit. Refer to the label on the DVD for power requirements and wavelength. This product is a class I laser product.
WARNING: Removing and Replacing the Cover. For your safety, never remove the system side cover
Å
without first disconnecting the power cord from the power outlet and removing any connection to a telecommunications network. If a Power Protection Device is fitted to your system, you must shut down your computer using its on/off switch, then remove the power cord before removing the system’s side cover. Remove the Power Protection Device cables before any servicing operation. Always replace the side cover before switching the system on again.
WARNING: Battery Safety Information. There is a danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly
Å
installed. For your safety, never attempt to recharge, disassemble, or burn an old battery. Replace the battery with the same or equivalent type, as recommended by the manufacturer.
The battery in this system is a lithium battery that does not contain any heavy metals. However, to protect the environment, do not dispose of batteries in household waste. Return used batteries either to the shop from which you bought them, to the dealer from whom you purchased your system, or to HP so that they can either be recycled or disposed of in the correct way. Returned batteries will be accepted free of charge.
WARNING: Avoid Burn Injuries. Some parts inside the computer will be hot. Wait approximately three
Å
to five minutes for them to cool down before touching them.
CAUTION: Avoid Static Electricity. Static electricity can damage electronic components. Turn OFF all
Ä
equipment before installing an accessory card. Don’t let your clothes touch any accessory card. To equalize the static electricity when replacing an accessory card, rest the accessory card bag on top of the system unit while you are removing the card from the bag. Handle the card as little as possible and with care.
CAUTION: Information on Ergonomic Issues. It is strongly recommended that you read the ergonomics
Ä
information, available in the “Working In Comfort” section of this manual, before using your system. You can access more extensive ergonomics information at: www.hp.com/ergo
NOTE: Recycling Your System. HP has a strong commitment toward the environment. Your HP system has been designed to respect the environment as much as possible. HP can also take back your old system for recycling when it reaches the end of its useful life. HP has a product take-back program in several countries. The collected equipment is sent to an HP recycling facilities in Europe or the U.S.A. As many parts as possible are reused. The remainder is recycled. Special care is taken for batteries and other potential toxic substances, these are reduced into non-harmful components through special chemical processes. If you require more details about the HP product take-back program, contact your local dealer or your nearest HP Sales Office.

Activity LED indicates whether the system is accessing any of the hard drives or optical
drives (IDE or SCSI). If the LED is:
off, the system is off, or the system is not accessing internal drives
blinking green, the system is accessing an internal drive
NOTE: The Activity LED automatically communicates with IDE hard drives or optical drives. To communicate with SCSI drives, a SCSI LED activity cable must connect the SCSI card and the system board. The Activity LED is active only on systems purchased after March 2003.
System and Diagnostic LEDs provide information about system errors.
Locator Button and LED (rack-mount configuration only) identifies the rack position of
the workstation.

removal and replacement prerequisites

Before you remove or replace parts, you must:
Read the power and EMI warning and note below. (Your safety is important!)
Gather your tools.
Follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions.

read the power and EMI warning and note

WARNING: For the installation and removal procedures in this chapter, you must:
Å

gather your tools

power off the workstation, and
unplug the workstation power cord from the AC power outlet.
NOTE: To maintain FCC Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) compliance, verify that all covers are replaced and that all screws are properly seated.
You ne e d:
Flat blade screwdriver
T-15 Torx driver
Special processor tool (provided with replacement CPU)
Static-free mat
Static strap

follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions

To prevent damage to this system, observe all of the following ESD precautions while performing the system parts removal/replacement procedures:
Work on a static-free mat.
Wear a static strap to ensure that any accumulated electrostatic charge is discharged from your body to ground.
Create a common ground for the equipment you are working on by connecting the static-free mat, static strap and peripheral units to that piece of equipment.
Keep uninstalled printed circuit boards in their protective antistatic bags.
Handle printed circuit boards by their edges, once you have removed them from their protective antistatic bags.

removing and replacing covers

To upgrade, remove or replace system components, you must first remove the covers from the system chassis. This section explains how to remove and replace the covers for both tower and rackmount configurations.
WARNING: Never remove the system cover(s) without first turning the system off and unplugging the
Å
power cord from the outlet or Power Protection Device. Always replace the cover(s) before turning the workstation on.

removing the plastic and metal covers

1. Turn off the system and disconnect the power cable and all other cables from the back of the system.
2. Access the metal cover.
Rackmount system: Release the glide-rail retainers and slide the system outward as far as you can so that you have access to the system cover.
Tower system: remove the plastic cover. With the front panel of the tower case facing right:
a. Grasp both indentations at the top of the side panel and pull outward.

memory modules

The hp workstation zx2000 has four memory sockets for memory modules. These modules can be 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB or 2 GB. DIMMs must be installed in ordered pairs of equal size. You can install between 512 MB and 8 GB of memory in the system. For a list of approved memory modules, see Appendix C.
removing memory modules
1. Turn off the system, disconnect all cables, and remove the system covers.
WARNING: To ensure that memory modules are not damaged during removal or installation, power off
Å
the workstation and unplug the power cord from the AC power outlet. Wait until the LED on the back of the power supply turns off before removing memory.
2. Press down on the memory module retainer clips and lift the module by its edges out of its memory socket.
Memory Module Retainer Clips
3. If the removed memory is functional, store it in a static-free container for future use.
4. Replace the system covers, reconnect all cables, and turn on the system.
5. Execute the EFI shell info mem command to verify the new memory configuration. For more information on EFI, see Chapter 3

WARNING: To ensure that memory modules are not damaged during removal or installation, power off
Å
the workstation and unplug the power cord from the AC power outlet. Wait until the LED on the back of the power supply turns off before removing or installing memory.
technical reference guide 2–11
Installing or Replacing Parts and Accessories
2. Holding the memory module by its left and right edges, insert the module into the socket.
DDR SDRAM must be loaded as matched pairs. For example, if you place a memory module of 1 GB in DIMM 0A, you must insert a 1 GB module in DIMM 0B. Matched pairs should be loaded in sockets 0A and 0B first, and then in sockets 1A and 1B.
To verify that DIMMs are matched pairs, make sure the HP part numbers are identical.
It is not necessary for DIMMs in the two pairs to match. For example, you may install a pair of 256 MB DIMMs in sockets 0A and 0B and a pair of 1 GB DIMMs in sockets 1A and 1B.

NOTE: The memory modules are keyed and can only be inserted in one direction. When the module is correctly seated, the retainer clips will return to their fully upright position. Snap the clips firmly into place to ensure that the DIMMs are seated properly.
3. Replace the system covers, reconnect all cables, and turn on the system.
4. Execute the EFI shell info mem command to verify the new memory configuration. For more information on EFI, see Chapter 3.
