can disregard the blue LED and skip its
respective step.

dles are in the outward position by squeezing
the lever and the latch together.
2. Insert the blade into the shelf by placing the
top and bottom edges of the blade in the
card guides of the shelf. Ensure that the guid-
ing module of the shelf and blade are aligned
properly.
3. Apply equal and steady pressure to the blade
to carefully slide the blade into the shelf until
you feel resistance. Continue to gently push
the blade until the blade connectors engage.
4. Squeeze the lever and the latch together and
hook the lower and the upper handle into the
shelf rail recesses.
5. Fully insert the blade and lock it to the shelf
by squeezing the lever and the latch together
and turning the handles towards the face
plate.

make sure that the handles of both the
RTM and the front blade are closed in

tighten the face plate screws which secure
the blade to the shelf.
The switched off blue LED indicates that the
blade’s payload has been powered up and
that the blade is active.
