CHAPTER 2: Installation
2.
If your ServSwitch Multi manual is dated later than July 1998:
Once you’ve chosen
the slot, write down the letter of the corresponding channel in the “Channel”
field of this Card’s record in a copy of the Management/Control Cards pages
of the System-Configuration Chart (see
Appendix A
in your ServSwitch Multi
manual). At this time you should also write down what appears on the Card’s
label (just to the right of the HD62 connector if you look at the connector
from the rear) in the Chart’s “Card-Label Information” field, and (if the
ServSwitch Multi unit is part of a cascaded system) you should write down the
Switch’s address in the “Switch Address” field as well.
3. Remove the panel covering the available slot by unscrewing the two Phillips-
head screws that hold it in place. (Save these screws; you’ll be replacing them
momentarily.)
4. If you look into the open slot on the Switch, you will see “guide tracks” that
the top and bottom of the Card should slide along when you install it. Slide
the new Management Card or Serial Control Card gently into the slot along
these tracks, until the Card’s connector or connectors line up flush with the
back of the unit, as shown in Figure 2-2.

Serial Control Card shown at right).
5. Secure the Card in the Switch with the screws you removed in step 3.
Retighten the screws completely, but do
not
overtighten them.
Repeat the above procedure for every Management Card or Serial Control Card in
your system.
