Installing Cards and Components
8.1
Installing Cards
Open the latches, align the upper
and lower edges of the card with
the slide rails in the slot (with the
component side of the card facing
left), and push the card in along
the slide rails slowly.
Push the card to its
position, and close and
secure the card’s latches,
as shown in the figure
below.
Tighten the captive
screws on the card panel
to lock the card.
Before installing a card, check the pins and card connector on the
backplane.
Follow the rules for installing cards.
If you feel a resistance when inserting a card, pull it out and make sure that
you are inserting a card of the correct type to a correct slot in a correct
direction. Do not force in the card.
The core switch card, power card and CIOA card have color marks on both
ends. Apply the cards to the slots with the same color marks to prevent
mismatch.
Insert dummy panels to the slots not holding cards. The procedures for
installing dummy panels are the same as those for installing common
cards.
