DANGER

Electrocution hazard

Hazardous voltage is present when the Global Operation Console (GOC) is energized.

Before beginning any work, perform LOTO. See the MR Service Safety Manual (5452735).

Notice

Potential component damage

The cooling fan is off only when the workstation is off or the power cable is disconnected. The cooling fan is always on when the workstation is on or in Standby mode.

Disconnect the power cord from the power source before opening the workstation.

Notice

Potential component damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause permanent damage to electronic components.

Observe the following ESD precautions:

Work on a static-free mat.
Wear a static strap to ensure that any accumulated electrostatic charge is discharged from your body to the ground.
Create a common ground for the equipment being worked on by connecting the static-free mat, static strap, and peripheral units to that piece of equipment.

Notice

Potential Component Damage

For further information on ESD protection, see the MR Service Safety Manual (5452735).

About this task

This procedure describes the steps to replace the following lower-level FRUs (LLFRUs) in the Dell T5810 host PC:

DVD drive
Solid State Drive (SSD)
CMOS battery

Preparing the workstation

Procedure

(For SSD Replacement) Ask the customer to archive all images to an external storage device (PACS, DVDs, and so on).
Do a SaveInfo.
Close any PC applications and power down the GOC .

The GOC supports an optional UPS. Confirm your site’s configuration.
Perform LOTO for the GOC/Operator Workspace. See the MR Service Safety Manual (5452735). For added protection, disconnect the twist-n-lock main power cable from the rear of the console.
Remove the host PC from the GOC. See Dell T5810 Computer Replacement.
Lift up the cover release latch and lift the cover upward to a 45-degree angle, and remove it from the host PC.

Replacing SSD

About this task

The Dell T5810 has two SSDs, and they have the same replacement procedure.

Procedure

Disconnect the power supply and data cables from the SSD.

Figure 9. SSD cables removal
Press in gently on both sides of the bracket and slide the SSD carrier out of the slot.

Move the latch away from the battery to remove the battery from the socket.
If necessary, you can use a small screwdriver to remove the battery.
Let the computer sit for a minimum of 3 minutes to let the CMOS memory clear.
Install the new battery, and push the battery down until the release latch moves back into place and secures it. The battery’s positive (+) side should point up.
Continue to Reinstalling host computer in GOC below.

Reinstalling host computer in GOC

Procedure

Recover the left side cover of the host computer.
Reinstall host computer to the GOC in reverse order of removal.
Recover the GOC left side cover.
Confirm that all cable connections to the GOC and host PC are tight.
Get a GE Equipment Maintenance sticker, and write today’s date on the sticker. Put the sticker on the GOC where it is easily seen.

Finalization

Prerequisites


FRU Item Replaced	Actions to be performed
DVD drive	Reboot and confirm that the DVD drive can read and write images.
Hard drive	Reload the software.
CMOS battery	Update the customized BIOS settings. Shut down the PC and turn off the power. Re-apply the power and restart the PC. Make sure the date/time is correct (CMOS battery properly keeps date/time).

Procedure

Remove LOTO on the GOC to return power. If needed, reconnect the twist-n-lock main power cable to the rear of the console. See the MR Service Safety Manual (5452735).
Push the power button on the front of the host PC within the GOC .

Note: If you replaced the battery, you need to go to the BIOS settings before the host PC starts. To get into the BIOS menu, you need to push F2 as soon as the Dell circle shows. The Dell circle only shows for 5 seconds.

(For CMOS battery replacement) Push F2 when you see the Dell circle on the screen. Do the following steps:

If you see a message that indicates the time-of-day is not set, press F2 to continue.
Select Set Time and Date and enter the correct time. Use the Tab key to move the cursor and use the left and right arrow keys to change values.
After you set the time and date, the BIOS settings will open.

Restore the customized BIOS settings. Change only the values shown in the table below:

Table 1. Customized BIOS settings
Section	Sub-Section	Setting
General	General Boot Sequence Diskette Drive - disabled	Diskette Drive - disabled
		USB Storage Device - disabled
		Boot Order: ODD, SSD, SSD
System Configuration	SATA Operation	AHCI enabled
System Configuration	Memory Map IO	Memory Map - enabled
Performance	Intel SpeedStep	Enable Intel SpeedStep - disabled
	c-States	C states - disabled
	Dell Reliable Memory Technology	Enable Dell RMT - disabled
Virtualization Support	Virtualization	Enable Intel Virtualization - disabled
Virtualization Support	VT for Direct IO	Enable VT for direct IO - disabled

Click Apply to save changes, and then press Exit.
The system reboots. BIOS configuration is complete.

Note: Make sure the host PC front panel power LED is illuminated as a steady blue signal.
(For SSD Replacement) Load software and applications onto the operating system.
Run a goodbye scan.
Make sure all customer functions are operational (auto voice, filming, network, archive).
(For DV25 software or later) Host PC or hard disk replacement will change the service license ID. Contact your local RTE/OLC through the normal support process to update the 16-digit code, and then log into the SSA Web site and use Renew Softkey to re-generate the soft license if applicable.
