Chapter 2 Installing the AVN422HD
2.1 Blade Installation and Removal
Note:
It is important that the module be properly aligned with the slot guides before it is
inserted into the appropriate slot on the chassis. It is recommended that the user’s
line of sight be level with the middle of the backplane in order to see both slot
guides clearly.
Install a VSI blade into the chassis as follows:
Caution:
Use proper ESD precautions when installing or removing a VSI blade to
avoid damaging the unit’s circuitry.
1. Slide the blade, open end first, into the desired slot on the chassis until it plugs into the
connector located on the backplane at the rear of the unit.
2. Use the bottom ejector handle to securely seat the blade into the chassis and to properly
mate the rear connectors. The handle should lock closed when properly inserted to secure
the unit.
3. Tighten the captive thumb screw located at the top of the blade to provide a more secure
mounting.
4. If desired, an additional Phillips screw can be installed through the handle.
5. The Status LED will blink once per second when the blade is properly installed, powered, and
operational.
To remove a VSI blade:
1. Loosen the mounting screw at the top of the blade.
2. If installed, loosen the additional Phillips screw in the ejector handle.
3. Press the red tab on the bottom of the ejector handle to unlock the blade.
4. Pull down on the handle and pull the blade out of its slot away from the chassis.
2.2 Minimum Connections Installation
The minimum connections to the AVN422HD should include an HD video source connected to
the HDMI (DVI-D with optional cable adaptor) video input, and an RJ-45 LAN connection to the
Ethernet connector.
