Hardware Installation
5. Hardware Installation
To put the ECS-XMC/FPGA into operation, please follow the installation notes.
NOTICE
Read the safety instructions at the beginning of this document carefully, before
you start with the hardware installation!
DANGER
Hazardous Voltage -
Risk of electric shock
due to unintentional contact with
uninsulated live parts with high voltages inside of the system into which the ECS-
XMC/FPGA is to be integrated.
→ Disconnect all hazardous voltages (mains voltage) before opening the system.
→ Ensure the absence of voltage before starting any electrical work.
NOTICE
Electrostatic discharges may cause damage to electronic components.
→
→
To avoid this, please discharge the static electricity from your body by touching the
metal case of the XMC system
before
you touch the ECS-XMC/FPGA.
Furthermore, you should prevent your clothes from touching the ECS-XMC/FPGA,
because your clothes might be electrostatically charged as well.
Procedure:
1.
Switch off your system and all connected peripheral devices (monitor, printer, etc.).
2.
Discharge your body as described above.
3.
Disconnect the system from the mains.
Make sure that no risk arises from the system into which the ECS-XMC/FPGA shall be
inserted.
DANGER
Hazardous Voltage
Risk of electric shock
due to unintentional contact with uninsulated live parts with
high voltages inside of the system into which the ECS-XMC/FPGA is to be integrated.
→
→
→
→
Disconnect all hazardous voltages (mains voltage) before opening the system.
If the system does not have a flexible mains cable, but is directly connected to
mains, disconnect the power supply via the safety fuse and make sure that the
fuse cannot switch on again unintentionally (i.e. with caution label).
Ensure the absence of voltage before starting any electrical work.
Cover or block off adjacent live parts.
4.
Open the case if necessary.
5.
For sufficient EMC shielding the ECS-XMC/FPGA should make contact to the system's
enclosure nearly completely around its front panel. For this purpose a conductive O-ring is
contained in the product package of the ECS-XMC/FPGA module. Mount the conductive O-
ring on the front panel of the ECS-XMC/FPGA. Additionally or instead of it use shielding
material as for example conductive shielding gasket.
6.
Remove the carrier board (if already installed) and plug the ECS-XMC/FPGA carefully on the
carrier board. Pay attention that the XMC module is correctly installed on the carrier board.
Fix the ECS-XMC/FPGA with the screws on the carrier board. Use the M 2.5 x 6 mm
screws which are contained in the product package of the module.
