3. Connect the positions 1 through 50 connector of the NB5 cable to the male breakout
connector on the SCXI-1351.
4. Plug the mounting bracket connector onto the module rear signal connector (see Figure E-2).
Make sure the alignment tab on the bracket enters the upper board guide of the chassis.
5. Screw the mounting bracket to the threaded strips in the rear of the chassis.
6. Connect the 100-pin connector of the NB5 cable to the board.
After step 1, the order of these steps is not critical; however, it is easier to locate the correct
position for the mounting bracket with a module installed in the chassis. If you are attaching a
cable to the female connector, installation is easiest if you attach the second cable before
installing the SCXI-1351.
Note: If you are not using the SCXI-1351, omit steps 3, 4, and 5 in the instructions; instead,
connect the positions 1 through 50 connector of the NB5 cable directly to the rear signal
connector of the SCXI module.
