INSTALLATION
Preparation and Precaution for Installation
2.1
The ACE1553 features full PCIe
Plug and Play
capability; therefore, there are no jumpers or
switches on the board that require modification by the user in order to interface to the PCIe bus.
It is recommended to use a wrist strap for any installations. If there is no wrist wrap available,
then touch a metal plate on your system to ground yourself and discharge any static electricity
during the installation work.
Installation Instructions
2.2
The following instructions describe how to install the ACE1553 module in your system. Please
follow the instructions carefully, to avoid any damage on the device.
To Install the ACE1553
1. Shutdown your system and all peripheral devices.
2. Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. (Inserting or removing modules with
power applied may result in damage to module devices).
3. Find a free peripheral/hybrid expansion slot in your system.
4. Remove the slot bracket from the slot you have chosen and put it aside.
5. Make sure the injector/ejector handle is in its downward position.
6. Align the ACE1553 with the card guides on the top and bottom of the
peripheral/hybrid expansion slot. Do not raise the injector/ejector handle as you
insert.
7. Hold the handle as you slowly slide the module into the chassis until the handle
catches on the injector/ejector rail.
8. Raise the injector/ejector handle until the module firmly seats into the backplane
receptacle connectors. The front panel of the ACE1553 should be even with the
front of the chassis.
9. Secure the card to the PXIe/cPCIe chassis tightening the two bracket-retaining
screws on the top and bottom of the front panel
10. Connect the system to the power source. Turn on the power of your system.
