Accessing the Hardware Switches
The VXIpc 870 Series is housed in a metal enclosure comprised of a top
and bottom cover to improve EMC performance and to provide easy
handling. You need to remove the top cover to change many of the switch
and jumper settings. You must also remove the top cover to change the
amount of DRAM installed on the module.
Remove the top cover by removing the screws that attach it to the module.
