6.Swing the flip latch up and fasten the captive screw into the module. Gently tighten screw until it is firmly in place. DO

NOT overtighten screw.

Note: The flip latch will not engage if the power module is not fully seated into the bay. The flip latch activates a micro switch inside the power module. If the latch is not properly installed, the power module will not function. If after installing the power module, the flip latch will not engage, pull the power module out of the bay, and firmly slide it into place.
