Physical Installation
Before installing the AMC123, make sure the module is correctly configured for your
application.
Installing the AMC123
The following instructions assume that chassis power is on and that the system supports hot-
swap insertion. If the system does not support hot swap, power must be turned off prior to
installation.
With a grounding strap connected to your wrist or ankle, perform the following steps to install
the module:
1. Unlock the ejector handle by gently pulling it away from the front panel.
2. Select an appropriate AMC slot in the chassis and slide the AMC into the slot, aligning the module
with the guides near the top of the slot. The module audibly snaps into place when properly inserted.
When the AMC card edge connector makes proper contact with the backplane AMC connector, the
blue hot-swap LED turns ON and the hardware connection process begins.
3. Press the handle toward the front panel to lock the module in the chassis. When the module is
operational, the blue hot-swap LED turns OFF.
4. Connect any cables from peripheral devices.
See
“BIOS Configuration Overview,” on page 46
for instructions on configuring any required
BIOS settings.
Removing the AMC123
With a grounding strap connected to your wrist or ankle, perform the following steps to remove
the module:
1. Disconnect any peripheral device cables from the module.
2. Gently press your thumb against the front panel of the module, while pulling the handle away from the
front panel to unlock the module. The blue hot-swap LED blinks to indicate that the handle is open
and the module is waiting to be deactivated. It is not yet safe to extract the module in this state.
3. Wait until the blue hot-swap LED stops blinking and remains illuminated to indicate that the module is
ready for extraction.
4. When the blue hot-swap LED stops blinking and remains illuminated, the module is quiesced and
module payload power is disabled. It is now safe to extract the module. Gently pull on the handle to
remove the module from the system.
5. Carefully slide the module straight out of the chassis.
Note:
An extraction tool such as that manufactured by XTECH can aid in module removal.
Caution:
To Avoid Burns:
The heat sink on the AMC123 module can get very hot during normal
operation. To avoid burns, take extra care when removing the module from the chassis soon
after shutdown. Wait a few minutes to allow the heat sink to cool down.
