Installation and setup

Static Discharge

Whenever handling the XVC-1001-DC and other related equipment, please observe all static discharge precautions as described in the following note:

Static discharge can cause serious damage to sensitive semiconductor devices. Avoid handling circuit boards in high static environments such as carpeted areas, and when wearing synthetic fiber clothing. Always exercise proper grounding precautions when working on circuit boards and related equipment.

Board Installation

Use the following procedure to install the XVC-1001-DC in an openGear (DFR-8310-N) distribution frame with cooling fans:

Due to power consumption and heat dissipation requirements, the XVC- 1001-DC must only be installed in a frame with the cooling fan option installed.

1.Refer to the User Manual of the openGear 8300 series frame to ensure that the frame is properly installed according to instructions.

2.A maximum of 8 XVC-1001-DC or other Algogear cards can be installed in the DFR-8310 series frame.

Do not populate the openGear frame with more than 8 Algogear cards. Attempting to do so may damage the cards, the frame or both.

3.After selecting the desired frame and installation slot, hold the XVC-1001-DC card by the edges and carefully align the card edges with the slots in the frame. Then fully insert the card into the frame until the rear connection plugs are properly seated on the midplane and rear modules.
