Closing and Securing the Outer Housing

Once the card has been replaced, close and re-secure the outer housing:

1.Align the cover back over the unit and gently slide-down the chassis until the openings are aligned over their respective openings along both the sides and top of the unit.

2.Insert and secure the chassis housing screws back into their respective locations, as shown in FIG. 3 by using a grounded screwdriver.

3.Re-install all connectors and apply power to the unit.

Installing Into An Equipment Rack

Use the rack-mounting brackets (supplied) for equipment rack installations.

Remove the mounting brackets for flat surface installations.

Before completing the install process, it is recommended that you complete any firmware upgrade of the NetLinx Control Cards. This upgrade involves physically cycling power to the unit and can become cumbersome if the unit is already installed into a rack. Refer to theUpgrading the NXC Card Firmware via IP (NI-4x00 ONLY) section on page 59 for more detailed information.

1.Discharge the static electricity from your body by touching a grounded object.

2.Position and install the mounting brackets, as shown in FIG. 5, using the screws supplied with the unit. The mounting brackets can be rotated to accommodate your mounting needs.
