When the chassis top cover has been removed, the interior of the unit is
exposed.
Looking down into the Magnum 6K16-Series unit, notice that there are
individual PM installation spaces and female latch (white) connectors provided on the
main board along with four stand-off’s for each 6KPM card position. (See Figure 3.6.1b)
above.
Step 3. Remove front panel face plate retaining screws
There are two PM slots (A, B) located on the front of the chassis cover. Looking into the
vertical placed Chassis cover of the unit, there are three brackets with retaining screws
(#256 flat head ) which hold each PM Face plate card slot securely. These six screws
shown in the picture below are used to secure a PM face plate in position, but unscrew
only four of the screws as shown in Fig. below. These screws are also used to secure the
individual 6KPM cards screen plate which can be subjected to significant forces from the
attached cables. (See Figure 3.6.1c)
