CRESCENDO™/PB G3

Processor Upgrade Card for Macintosh®PowerBook®1400 Series Computers

Install Software

Before proceeding with the hardware installation, you must run the Crescendo/PB

Installer.

1. Insert the Crescendo diskette into the floppy disk drive or the Sonnet

Installer CD into the CD-ROM drive. Double click the Crescendo/Encore

Install icon.

2. By default, with “Easy Install” selected from the pop-up menu, the required

software will be installed into the active System Folder on the boot drive. If

this is ok, click the Install button; otherwise, select “Custom Install” from the

pop-up menu for more options or select another drive to install the software.

The installer will install the appropriate software into the System Folder of

your computer. If the installation was successful, a dialog box will appear.

3. Click Quit to leave the installer and shut down your computer.

Shut Down and Open Computer

1. If you have not already done so, shut down your PowerBook. If it has been

on for any length of time, wait a few minutes for it to cool before beginning

the installation.

2. Disconnect the power adapter and any peripheral cables from the back of

the PowerBook and move it to an area where you can freely work.

3. If installed, remove the battery from the computer.

4. With the front of the PowerBook facing you, find the speaker grill located

above the keyboard. Remove the speaker grill by sliding it to the left and

away from the computer (Figure 1). You may need to use some gentle

pressure to move it sideways if it has never been removed before. Set the

speaker grill aside.

5. Place your finger (or carefully slide the end of the Phillips screwdriver) under

the top edge of the keyboard and lift it up. Rotate the keyboard forward

(Figure 2) so that it rests upside down on the lower part of the computer’s

case. Take care not to disconnect the keyboard cable from the logic board.

Remove Metal Heat Shield

1. Locate the metal heat shield (Figure 3) and touch it to discharge any

potential damaging static electricity.

Quick Start Guide for Crescendo/PB

Support Note: When handling computer products, take care to prevent

components from being damaged by static electricity; avoid working in

carpeted areas. Handle electronic components only by their edges and avoid

touching connector traces and component pins.

WARNING: To avoid damaging your PowerBook, you should not

install any type of expansion card while a power source is connected.

Follow the instructions below for details on when to disconnect the power

adapter and remove the battery.

Support Note: To avoid regenerating a static charge in your body, do

not walk around the room until after you finish the installation, reassem-

ble and close the computer.

2. Use the Phillips screwdriver to loosen the six screws that hold the heat

shield in place (Figure 4). Remove the screws, noting the two screws that

secure the rear of the heat shield are longer than the other four screws.

Set the screws aside.

3. Lift the heat shield up and away from the computer (Figure 5) and set it

aside near the screws you just removed.

Remove Processor Card

1. Locate the processor card (Figure 6). It is in front of the keyboard cable

connected to the logic board. The processor card should also have four

stand-offs that secure it in place.

2. If present, remove the screen cable shield. Use the hex head driver tool to

loosen the stand-offs (Figure 6). Remove the stand-offs and set them aside,

noting the two rear stand-offs that run horizontal to the screen are longer

than the two stand-offs in front of the keyboard cable.

3. Carefully unseat the processor upgrade card by first lifting up the edge near-

est the keyboard, then lift up the edge nearest the screen. Once un-mated

from the logic board connectors, lift the processor card out toward the key-

board while holding the front edge higher than the screen edge (Figure 7).

Set the card aside near the stand-offs you just removed.

Install the Crescendo/PB

1. Remove the Crescendo card from the anti-static package, making sure to

handle the card by the edges.

2. Lower the card into the unit while holding it with the screen edge lower

than the keyboard edge. Align the screen end of the card connectors with

the logic board connectors. Once aligned, gently press on the outer edges of

the board (as indicated in Figure 8) until the card’s connectors begin to

engage the main logic board connectors. Take care not to press on the board

component shown in Figure 8. Then in one motion, lower the front edge of

the card and firmly press down until the card is seated. DO NOT FORCE IT!

The connection may be tight, but should not require excessive force during

insertion. If the card does not join properly with the logic board connectors,

carefully remove the card using the procedure above, check for bent pins,

and reinstall it using the procedure outlined above.

3. Package the old processor card into the Crescendo’s anti-static package and

store it in a safe place.

4. Reinstall the four stand-offs into their respective holes in the four corners of

the Crescendo card. The two long stand-offs run horizontal to the screen; the

two short stand-offs run horizontal to the keyboard. Reinstall the screen

cable shield if present.

Reinstall Metal Heat Shield

Reinstall the heat shield. Slide the front edge of the heat shield under the case,

then lower the back of the shield until it is flush with the logic board (Figure 9).

Reinstall the six screws. Make sure to put the two long screws at the rear corners

of the shield.

Reassemble Computer

1. Reinstall the keyboard (Figure 10). Gently lift it up and rotate it back into

place, lowering the top edge of the keyboard into the upper part of the case.

2. Reinstall the speaker grill (Figure 11). Lower the grill into the opening above

the top row of keys. Slide the grill to the right to lock it in place.

3. Affix the Powered by Sonnet label to the front of your computer.

Reset Power Management

Hold down the On/Off key for 30 seconds. This procedure acts as a reset for the

PowerBook’s power management chip and ensures that a new processor upgrade

card is recognized at the next startup. Clicking sounds from the speaker may be

audible during this procedure. This is normal and does not indicate a problem

with the installation.

Turn On Computer

1. Before reinstalling the battery or any peripheral cables, reconnect the A/C

power adapter and turn on your upgraded G3 PowerBook. You should hear

the startup tone and see the Crescendo extension load during startup. The

Crescendo extension will rebuild your desktop the first time you restart the

computer. If the PowerBook fails to boot, refer to the troubleshooting section

of these installation instructions.

2. Once the PowerBook has booted, shut down the unit and reinstall the

battery and any peripheral cables.

Troubleshooting

This section addresses issues encountered by some Crescendo/PB users.

Problem:

Although the A/C power adapter has been reconnected, there is no startup

tone when the PowerBook is turned on.

Solution:

Does the sleep light on the upper right corner of the screen stay on

(green)?

Yes: a) The PowerBook power management circuit needs to be completely

reset. To do this, disconnect all peripherals and power sources (bat-

tery and A/C power adapter) from the PowerBook. Use a small

piece of tape to hold down the On/Off key, then leave the

PowerBook in this configuration overnight (8-10 hours). It is nor-

mal if clicking sounds from the speaker are audible during this

procedure. Repeat step 1 of the “Turn On Computer” section of the

installation procedure.

No: a) The PowerBook power management circuit may need to be reset

longer than the 30 seconds prescribed in the “Reset Power

Management” section of the installation procedure. Disconnect all

peripherals and power sources (battery and A/C power adapter).

Hold the On/Off key down for several minutes. It is normal if click-

ing sounds from the speaker are audible during this procedure.

Repeat step 1 of the “Turn On Computer” section of the installa-

tion procedure.

b) The Crescendo card may not be installed properly. After attempting

the above extended reset procedure, verify the Crescendo card is

installed properly.
