Fitting Preliminaries
Fitting Preliminaries
Rear module fitting requires:
• A Pozidriv screwdriver
• Four pan head, M3 x 6 mm, zinc plated screws per rear module.
CAUTION
Electrostatic Damage
Static precautions must be observed when handling, inserting or
removing modules.
IMPORTANT
When inserting a module, take care and do not knock high
components which are mounted on the top- or on the under-side of
the module.
Any knocks may damage the module being inserted, or the modules
above and below it in the router frame.
IMPORTANT
Fit the MV-831 Rear Panel(s) before fitting the front MV-831 Main
Module(s).
Note:
When inserting a
rear
module into a
rear
slot:
• Check the module is the correct one for the slot.
• Check there are no obstructions at the module connectors.
• Check for any high components on the top- or under-side of
the module. Do not knock these during fitting.
• Insert the module into the slot and slide the module into the
frame.
• In the last few millimeters of travel, the module connectors
mate with the router motherboard. Some resistance will be
met; ease, but do not force, the module in.
• If excessive resistance is met, remove the module and re-
check that the module and slot are correct. Check the slot
for any obstruction. Check the module connectors for any
damage or foreign objects.
• Fasten the two module securing screws at the far left and far
right of the module’s rear plate. Gently tighten the fixing
screws. Do not over-tighten them.
