Procedure to install PMC cards
1.
Switch off the device and remove the cables as described in the section on
connection in this manual.
2.
Remove the device from the workplace and place it in a stable, safe place
where it can be easily accessed and handled. Open up the device. To do this
you need to remove the upper cover which is secured through two screws
located on the underside of the device.
3.
Once the screws have been removed, in order to remove the cover, slide it
towards the back panel and then remove it by lifting it. Place it in a safe
place
4.
Find the place where the PMC board needs to be placed. This slot has a set
of raised connectors with gold contacts and a pair of securing screws.
5.
Remove the blind cover from the slot. This cover is located either on the
rear panel (ATLAS 160 and 260) or on the front panel (ATLAS 360). Push
this out
6.
Place PMC board securing posts over the securing screws. Secure these
firmly.
7.
Place the PMC card in the slot so that this firstly adjusts to the space on the
device rear panel and subsequently to the two PMC connectors. This
operation must be carefully carried out without forcing any piece or part of
the device. Check that the board is clearly seated over the PMC connectors
