Mounting Modules
Before mounting modules, make sure the device is physically disconnected from AC power! Never
operate the BIT-2100 with any module slot uncovered!
Always use proper ESD (electrostatic discharge) protective equipment when preparing, mounting or
dismounting modules. ESD can destroy the electronic components of the BIT-2100 Series Switch
System.
To mount a switch module or a filler panel, follow these instructions:
1. Make sure the device is powered off and all cables are disconnected
2. If a module or filler panel is still installed, remove it first (see page 39)
3. Carefully push the module into the slot (see Figure 15)
◦
Make sure that the module is in the red plastic rail
◦
Push in until the front panel of the module is flush with the others
4. Mount the two screws at the very top of the module and the two screws at the very bottom
of the module (below the handle) using a Torx T8 screwdriver (reverse order of Figure 13)
Note that a firmware update might be required if the new module is not supported by the currently
installed firmware.
