Perform the following steps to install a switching card into the instrument mainframe: 
1. Turn the instrument off and disconnect the power line cord and any other cables connected to the

rear panel.

2. Position the instrument so that you are facing the rear panel.
3. Remove the slot cover plate from the desired mainframe slot. Retain the plate and screws for

future use.

4. With the top cover of the switching card facing up, align the card's edge into the slot's card guide

and slide in the card. For the last ¼ inch or so, press in firmly to mate the card connector to the

mainframe connector.

5. On each side of the card, there is a mounting screw. Tighten these two screws to secure the card

to the mainframe. Do not overtighten.

6. Reconnect the power line cable and any other cables to the rear panel, then turn the instrument

on.

7. Press the

 SLOT

 key to see the model numbers, description, and the firmware revision of the

installed switching cards, along with the mainframe firmware and DMM (if present).

Item shipped may vary from model pictured here.
