Use the injector handles to firmly seat the modules in place one at a time.

Unmerging TLA7Axx/TLA7NAx Logic Analyzer Modules
Although you can unmerge modules from a merged set from within the TLA
application without physically separating modules, there will be situations when
you have to physically unmerge the modules. The following procedures provide
the steps for unmerging the modules.
CAUTION.
Ensure that the mainframe is powered-off before installing or
removing the modules. Failure to do so can damage the mainframe or the
modules.
1.
Power off the mainframe before removing the modules from the mainframe.
2.
Loosen the four retaining screws on each module.
3.
Use the ejector handles to disengage each module in the merged module set
from the mainframe.
4.
With the assistance of another individual, slide all of the merged modules out
of the mainframe and place them on a static-free working surface.
5.
Gently separate the modules one at a time from the merged module set.
6.
Lay the modules on their right sides.
7.
Remove the two Torx T-10 screws that hold the merge cable assembly to the
module.
8.
Place the merge cable assembly into the recessed position.
9.
Install the two Torx T-10 screws onto the assembly and tighten the screws to
4 in-lbs.
10.
Repeat steps 7 through 9 for the other modules.
You can now reinstall the modules in the mainframe as needed.
