Description
Retaining screws
The screws on both ends of the module are used to retain the module tightly
inside the M9505A AXIe Chassis slot once you have fully placed it inside the
chassis. To remove the module, you first need to loosen these screws ensuring
that these screws disengage completely.
Module Insertion/Extraction
Handles
The handles on both sides of the module to insert or eject the module from the
slot of the M9505A AXIe Chassis.
CAUTION
The inputs of the M8042A module are sensitive to static electricity.
Therefore, take necessary anti-static precautions, such as wearing a
grounded wrist strap, to minimize the possibility of electrostatic damage.
