Series Service Manual
Expansion Cards
Installation Before installing expansion cards into the 6200
plus
series chassis, consult the
documentation provided with each card. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for
installing the card.
Card Guide
A full-length expansion card will reach from the expansion slot at the I/O panel of the
chassis to a card guide mounted on the card guide bracket. The card guide reduces
lateral movement that can dislodge the expansion card.
The card guides can be individually positioned on the card guide bracket to hold either
ISA, PCI, or non-standard, extended-length PCI cards (
Figure 6 ).
Figure 7 shows examples of how card guides can be positioned to accommodate
different ISA and PCI slot configurations.
Retention
Bracket
The expansion card retention bracket extends from one side of the chassis, across the
tops of the expansion cards, to the opposite side of the chassis. The retention bracket
secures the expansion cards in place. The bracket is keyed to prevent improper
installation (
Figure 8 ).
The retention bracket has two accessories:
• Card Retention Cushion : grips the top of full-height expansion cards.
• Card Retention Clamp : extends downward from the retention bracket to the top of
an expansion card which does not reach the height of the bracket.
Note:
RadiSys provides an assortment of retention clamps to accommodate a
variety of expansion cards with odd dimensions. For more information, contact
RadiSys Technical Support (see
page v ).
The retention cushion and clamps greatly reduce lateral movement of expansion cards
and help prevent cards from being dislodged. The retention cushion and clamps are
adjustable, each fitting a series of mounting holes along the length of the retention
bracket (
Figure 9 ).
