Installing Peripheral Modules
Caution
The PXIe-1086DC chassis has been designed to accept a variety of
peripheral module types in different slots. To prevent damage to the chassis, ensure
that the peripheral module is being installed into a slot designed to accept it. Refer to
the Getting Started section for a description of the various slot types.
This section contains general installation instructions for installing a peripheral module in a
PXIe-1086DC chassis. Refer to your peripheral module user manual for specific instructions
and warnings. To install a module, complete the following steps:
1.
Ensure that the chassis is properly grounded to protect it from electrical damage while
you install the module.
2.
Ensure that the chassis is powered off.
3.
Install a module into a chassis slot by first placing the module card PCB into the front of
the card guides (top and bottom), as shown in the following figure. Slide the module to
the rear of the chassis, making sure that the injector/ejector handle is pushed down as
shown in the following figure.
4.
When you begin to feel resistance, push up on the injector/ejector handle to fully seat the
module into the chassis frame. Secure the module front panel to the chassis using the
module front-panel mounting screws.
