Card Installation
The MIC-3660 is a PCI bus master card. It can be installed only in a
CompactPCI slot which supports a bus master card. Some processor
boards do not support bus master for each slot. Refer to the user's
manual of your processor board.
The CompactPCI connectors are firm and rigid and require careful
handling while plugging and unplugging. Improper installation of a
card can easily damage the backplane of the chassis.
The insert/eject handle of the MIC-3660 helps you to install and remove
the card easily and safely. Follow the procedure below to install the
MIC-3660 into a chassis:
To install a card:
1. Hold the MIC-3660 vertically. Be sure that the card is pointing in
the correct direction. The components of the card should be
pointing to the right-hand side.
2. Holding the handle, pull out the red portion in the middle of the
handle to unlock it.
Caution:
Keep your fingers away from the hinge to prevent
them from getting pinched.
3. Insert the card into the chassis by sliding the upper and lower
edges of the card into the card guides.
4. Push the card into the slot gently by sliding the card along the card
guides until the handle meets the rectangular holes of the cross
rails.
Note:
If the card is correctly positioned and has been slid
all the way into the chassis, the handle should match
the rectangular holes. If not, remove the card from
the card guide and repeat step 3 again. Do not try to
install a card by forcing it into the chassis.
5. Lift the handle up to push the card into place.
6. Secure the card by pushing in the red handle, and tighten the
screws on the front panel to lock it into place.
To remove a card:
1. Unscrew the two screws on the front panel. Pull out the red part to
unlock the handle.
2. Press the handle down to release the card from the backplane.
3. Slide the card out.
