Preparing to Install Module into Matrix E7 or N7 Chassis

4.Slide the module into the slot until you can engage the top and bottom locking levers.

Caution: In step 5, do not force the locking levers to the point that they touch the face of the front panel. Forcing the locking levers to this point could damage the module and chassis.

Precaución: En el paso 5, tenga cuidado de no llevar las palancas de cierre a un punto en donde estén en contacto con el panel frontal. Si lo hace, podría dañar el módulo y/o el chasis.

5.Refer to the Caution note above, then rotate the two levers into the closed position.

6.If the chassis in which the module is installed was powered down for the installation, turn the power supplies on. Check to see that the module CPU LED settles at solid green after a few minutes. If the LED does not turn solid green, refer to Chapter 4 for troubleshooting details.
