Rear I/O Module Installation Procedures
To perform an installation of the rear I/O module in a system, proceed as follows:
1. Ensure that the safety requirements indicated Chapter 3.1 are observed.
2. Ensure that the rear I/O module is compatible with the CPU board and the backplane
prior to installation.
3. If appropriate, ensure that the onboard peripheral devices are properly installed prior to
installation.
4. Ensure that no power is applied to the system before proceeding.
5. Carefully insert the rear I/O module into the slot designated by the application require-
ments for the rear I/O module until it makes contact with the backplane connectors.
6. Using both ejector handles, engage the rear I/O module with the backplane. When the
ejector handles are locked, the rear I/O module is engaged.
7. Fasten the two front panel retaining screws.
8. Connect all external interfacing cables to the rear I/O module as required.
9. Ensure that the rear I/O module and all required interfacing cables are properly secured.
The rear I/O module is now ready for operation.
Warning!
Failure to comply with the instruction below may cause damage to the
rear I/O module or result in improper system operation.
Note ...
Ensure that the system components are properly configured for use with
the rear I/O module.
Warning!
Even though power may be removed from the system, the rear I/O mod-
ule’s front panel cables may have power applied which comes from an ex-
ternal source.
In addition, these cables may be connected to devices that can be dam-
aged by electrostatic discharging or short-circuiting of pins.
It is the responsibility of the system designer or integrator to ensure that
appropriate measures are taken to preclude damage to the system or in-
jury to personnel which may arise from the handling of these cables (con-
necting or disconnecting).
Kontron disclaims all liability for damages or injuries resulting from failure
to comply with the above.
Warning!
When performing the next step,
DO NOT
push the rear I/O module into the
backplane connectors. Use the ejector handles to seat the rear I/O module
into the backplane connectors.
