Removing an Option Card
If you ever need to remove a MADI-192 card from an Option
card slot, do the following:
• Remove the E6L Engine core.
• Remove the card retaining bracket.
• Remove the card guide bracket.
• Completely loosen the captive thumbscrew that secures the
faceplate of the card to the back panel of the E6L core.
• To remove an Option card, release its retaining clip using a
long, flat head screwdriver (not included) as shown below,
pull the card out of its PCIe slot and then carefully lift the
card out of the core.
If you ever need to remove a second MADI-192 card from AVB
Network slot 3 in an E6L-112 (in order to install a WSG-HD card,
for example), do the following:
• Remove the E6L Engine core.
• Completely loosen the captive thumbscrew that secures the
faceplate of the card to the E6L chassis.
• Release the MADI-192 card from its PCIe slots by using
one hand to lift the tab on the retaining clip to release the
card from its clip, then using your other hand to pull the
card out of its PCIe port.
Confirming Installation
After installing MADI-192 cards, confirm that you successfully
installed them.
To confirm installation:
1
Connect power to the E6L, and connect an audio network ca-
ble from your S6L control surface to E6L.
2
Power on your S6L and E6L.

On the external VENUE software screen, go to the
Options >

If prompted to update firmware, let the update process com-
plete and then power cycle the entire system.
Figure 21. Releasing a card retaining clip
Your S6L system may initiate a firmware update of your
newly-installed card. If so, follow the on-screen prompts to
ensure a successful installation.
In E6L-112 engines, a second MADI-192 physically installed
in AVB Network slot 3 is listed in slot 2 under EXPANSION
CARDS.
