Installation of the ES5392.1 in the ES5300.1-A/B Housing
1. Ensure that ESD-compliant conditions exist at your
workplace.
2. Shut down the real-time PC and switch off the
power supply of the ES5300.1-A/B using the switch
at the rear of the housing.
3. Wait a few minutes for the components (capacitors,
etc.) to be discharged.
4. Place the ES5392.1 in the upper and lower rail of
the slot and push it in a little bit. The backplane con-
nector CO200 must be located at the lower rail so
that it is possible to insert it in the backplane.
5. Carefully push in the carrier board until the back-
plane connector of the ES5392.1 is completely
inserted in the socket of the backplane.
6. Secure the carrier card by fastening the front plate
with screws.
7. Install front plates at all open slots before starting
up the ES5392.1. This ensures an optimal cooling of
the components.
CAUTION!
The air circulation inside the ES5300.1-A/B Housing can be ensured
only if all free slots are covered with front plates. Otherwise, it may
lead to overtemperatures and trip the overtemperature protection of
the ES5300.1-A/B. For this reason, install front plates in all free slots!
CAUTION!
If cards (e.g. for startup or calibration) are unlocked but not com-
pletely removed from the housing, they must be pulled out far
enough that the distance between the respective card and the back-
plane of the housing is at least 1 cm. Otherwise, contacts may be
established between the cards and lead to their destruction.
Note
Watch for cables in the insertion area while pushing
in the board – pull the lines to the front door area if
necessary.
