To complete the upgrade process, close and re-secure the Integrated Controller enclosure using the
procedures outlined in the following section.
Closing and Securing the Outer Housing
Once the card has been replaced, close and re-secure the outer housing:

Align the cover back over the unit and gently slide-down the chassis until the openings are aligned
over their respective openings along both the sides and top of the unit.
2.
Insert and secure the chassis housing screws back into their respective locations, as shown in FIG. 3
by using a grounded screwdriver.
3.
Re-install all connectors and apply power to the unit.
Installing Into An Equipment Rack
Use the rack-mounting brackets (supplied) for equipment rack installations.
Remove the mounting brackets for flat surface installations.

Any new internal card upgrade is detected by the Controller only after power is
cycled.
Before completing the install process, it is recommended that you complete any
firmware upgrade of the NetLinx Control Cards. This upgrade involves physically
cycling power to the unit and can become cumbersome if the unit is already installed
into a rack. Refer to theUpgrading the NXC Card Firmware via IP (NI-4x00
ONLY)
section on page 59
