Installing the PXI-8150B Series
This section contains general installation instructions for the PXI-8150B.
Consult your PXI mainframe user manual for specific instructions and
warnings.
1.
Plug in your mainframe before installing the PXI-8150B. The power
cord grounds the mainframe and protects it from electrical damage
while you install the module.
Warning
To protect both yourself and the mainframe from electrical hazards, leave the
mainframe off until you finish installing the PXI-8150B module.
2.
Remove or open any doors or covers blocking access to the system
controller slot (Slot 1) in the mainframe.
3.
Touch the metal part of the case to discharge any static electricity that
might be on your clothes or body.
4.
Make sure the injector/ejector handle is in its downward position.
Align the PXI-8150B with the card guides on the top and bottom of the
system controller slot.
Caution
Do not raise the injector/ejector handle as you insert the PXI-8150B. The module
will not insert properly unless the handle is in its downward position so that it does
not interfere with the injector rail on the mainframe.
5.
Hold the handle as you slowly slide the module into the mainframe
until the handle catches on the injector/ejector rail.
