Hardware Preparation and Installation
Installing and Removing a Module
52
Refer to the following illustration and perform these steps when installing modules. Note that
this illustration is for general reference only and may not accurately depict the connectors and
handles on the board you are installing.
1.
Open the injector levers on your board (see
Recognize Different Injector/Ejector
Lever Types
on page 49
).
2.
Verify the proper slot for the module you are inserting (see
Verify Slot Usage
on
page 50
). Align the edges of the module with the card cage rail guides in the
appropriate slot. Insert the board by holding the injector levers, do not exert
unnecessary pressure on the face plate.
3.
Using your thumbs, apply equal and steady pressure as necessary to carefully slide
the module into the card cage rail guides (Stage 1). Continue to gently push until the
prealignment guide pegs engage with the backplane connector (Stage 2) and the
injector levers make contact with the chassis rails. Do not force the board into the
backplane slot.
4.
Use the injector levers to seat the module in the slot by closing the levers until they
latch into the locked position (Stage 3). If the levers do not completely latch, remove
the module from the chassis and visually inspect the slot to ensure there are no bent
pins.
5.
When the module you are installing is completely latched, secure it by tightening the
captive screws at both ends of the face plate.
This section describes a recommended procedure for removing a board module from a chassis.
