Installing Series 505 System Hardware
Use the following steps to install and remove a Series 505 RBC.
The RBC can be damaged by electrostatic discharge.
Ensure that personnel make contact with a grounded conductive
pad and/or wear a grounded wrist strap when handling the RBC.
1.
Disconnect power to the base.
Disable all power to the base before installing or removing the
RBC.
Failure to do so could cause death or serious injury and/or damage
to equipment.
To prevent disruption of the I/O channel, disconnect the RS-485
cable before removing or installing an RBC.
2.
Position the RBC so that the bezel is facing you.
3.
Grasp the top and bottom of the RBC.
4.
Carefully push the RBC into the slot until it mates with the back plane
connectors.
5.
Tighten top and bottom bezel screws.
To remove the RBC module, complete these steps.
1.
If attached, remove cables from the front of the RBC.
2.
To complete the removal of the RBC module, simply reverse procedures
used during installation.
A base thumbwheel is used to assign a base number to the RBC for system
identification. If you are using more than one RBC, each RBC must be
uniquely numbered. Base numbers are the same as the thumbwheel
number except for base 0, which is reserved for local base assignment and
cannot be used by Series 505 RBCs.
