2.5.1 Installing the RTM
Installation Procedure
The following procedure describes the installation of the RTM. It assumes that your system
is powered. If your system is unpowered, you can disregard the blue LED and thus skip the
respective step. In this case it is a purely mechanical installation.
1. Locate the slot where the RTM has to be installed into the shelf's rear, which must be
the same as that of the front blade.
2. Ensure that the top and the bottom handles of the RTM are in an outward position by
squeezing the lever and the latch together.
3. Insert the RTM into the shelf by placing the top and bottom edges in the card guides of
the slot.
4. Slide the RTM into the slot.
5. Apply equal and steady pressure to the RTM to carefully slide the RTM into the shelf
until you feel resistance. Continue to gently push the RTM until the RTM connectors
engage.
6. Squeeze the lever and the latch together and hook the lower and the upper handle into
the shelf rail recesses.
