910-200 Maintenance
INTRODUCTION
Welcome to PI9102X - 910-200 Maintenance. The eyber 910-200 provides sophisticated 3-D
graphics, video, and audio support at personal computer prices. It is known as the RISC PC that
offers the strengths of the UNIX workstation and conveniences of the PC market. This course
presents the skills and knowledge required to perform corrective maintenance on the newest
member of the Control Data Cyber 910 workstation family. Products covered in this course
include: 910B-230, 910B-232, 910M-216, 910D-422, 910P-4BD, and 910P-4CC.
This course combines the best of classroom and individualized courseware. First, it provides
you with an actual working Cyber 910-200 for the true one-on-one hands-on experience.
Second, the course materials allow you to work at your own pace. The course is divided into
two modules. The fIrst module concentrates on the maintenance tools available from power-on
until the operating system is loaded and component replacement. The second module covers
basic UNIX system administration tasks. The learning activities found in each module are
guided labs to aid you in gaining the necessary tasks to perform corrective maintenance. Most
activities have self-check questions which will allow you to monitor your progress. The actual
time it will take to complete this course will depend on your present 910 and UNIX knowledge.
If you are experienced in these areas, it will take you a short time to learn the new 910-200
tasks. If you are new to the 910 and/or UNIX world, you may take as much as two days to
complete this course.
One [mal note, this is your system to use in whatever manner you feel necessary. It is
recommended that you complete the activities in each module so none of the new 910-200
features are overlooked. If you want to try additional tasks, feel free to do so. The only thing
training administration requires is that you do the last two activities in module 2 before shipping
it back. That will set up the unit for the next student.
Appendix A contains information on safety procedures and Appendix B contains information on
electrostatic discharge precautions. Read both of these appendices before working on the
equipment.
Before you proceed further in this course, read through the following pages of the introduction
section. The remaining pages include the Course Chart, the Course Objectives, and a list of all
the materials you will be using during this course.
When you finish reading the introduction section, you will be ready to start the course. You can
start by working on the learning activities in Module 1 of this manual.
