Rear Transition Module (RTM) Installation
The installation and removal procedures for RTMs are the same as for
CompactPCI cards. Since RTMs are shorter than the CompactPCI cards,
they require more careful handling during installation and removal.
Note:
We strongly recommended the use of RTMs with AB type connectors
to prevent the damage to the backplane during RTM installation.

Powering Up the System
Before connecting the power cord to the system, make sure the AC-in power
switch is in the
O
(off) position (see Section 1.3, Mechanical Drawing,
Chassis Rear View).
The cPCIS-6230R/40R sub-systems feature a guarded power switch and
reset button that provide ATX power control capability. Use the tool provided
in the Accessory Packet or a suitably shaped object (such as a pen) to
actuate the power switch and reset button.
