Installing and Removing the Board
Caution
• Only install and use the ACC/RTB-735R2/736R2 with CPU boards
especially designed for it. Otherwise, both the CPU board and the
RTB may be destroyed.
• Always turn off system power before RTB installation or removal.
• Make sure to use the backplane’s rear slot position only.
• Before touching integrated circuits, make sure that you are working
in an ESD-safe environment.
• When plugging the board in or removing it, do not press on the front
panel but use the handles.
Installation Procedure
Connect interface cables to the on-board connectors first since it may be dif-
ficult to reach them when the RTB is already installed into the CompactPCI
backplane. Connect interface cables to the front panel connectors after the
RTB installation.
1. Check all installed boards for steps to be taken before turning off
system power
2. Take those steps
3. Turn off system power
4. Check system documentation for switch settings
Caution
The RTB provides the configuration switch SW3 which functions are
reserved. The switches have to be set to OFF to avoid damage to attached
PMC modules. Therefore, never change the settings of SW3.
5. Make sure that switches are set to OFF (default position)
6. Connect interface cables to on-board connectors
