Installing and Removing an LS Module

The LS Modules are located in the front of the enclosure.

Follow these procedures to install and remove the LS

Modules.

Installing an LS	1	Select the LS Module slot in to which the LS Module is to be
Module		inserted and remove the LS blank if one is installed.
	2	Orient the LS Module such that the LEDs are on the top (on the
		right for deskside systems).
	3	With the cam lever fully open slide the LS Module into the slot
		until the lever starts to close.
	4	Fully close the cam lever. The lever is fully closed, and the LS
		Module locked in place, when the lever “clicks” into position.
Removing an LS	1	Using your finger, release the locking tab by pressing it in the
Module		direction shown in Figure 5-2, and pull the cam lever towards
		you.
	2	Fully open the cam lever (approx. 90o to enclosure).
	3	Gently, pull the LS Module out of the enclosure.

CAUTION: Immediately replace the LS Module or install an LS

Module blank to maintain correct airflow.
