4. Remove the malfunctioning Model 6081RC by pushing the handles outwards, pulling the card gently but
firmly from its slot in the chassis. Place the removed card in the container the replacement Model 6081RC
came in so you can return the defective Model 6081RC for repair.
Installing the replacement Model 6081RC
1. Insert the replacement Model 6081RC into the rack chassis.
2. Insert the rear blade into the desired slot in the rack chassis. Make sure the blade is seated properly in the
slot guides.
3. Gently press the blade into the chassis until the alignment/ESD pin engages the chassis. When the blade is
fully seated, the red buttons in the handles click up automatically, thus locking the handle and activating
the switch (closed position). The click of the button gives a visual and audible confirmation that the board
is fully seated.
4. Connect the following cables to the Model 6081RC:
– The RS-232 CONFIG cable
– The 10/100 ETHERNET cable
5. Verify that the green PWR LED is lit.
