Installing and Removing CMs

Note: If you ordered the Memory Upgrade Kit (X-4G-MEM), install the DIMMs first. For installation instructions, refer to “Installing the Memory Upgrade Kit” on page 3-35.

1.Locate the empty CM1 slot, and position the module in the guide rail at the left of the slot, as shown in Figure 3‐22. Gently insert the module until it engages with the backplane connectors. Be sure the ejector handles are open as shown in Figure 3‐20.

2.Push the ejector handles toward the center of the module, as shown in Figure 3‐20, engaging the lip of the slot, until the module locks into place and is flush with adjoining coverplates.

3.Tighten the two captive screws.

4.After completing all module installation, be sure that you leave no slots uncovered. Failure to seal any empty slots with the provided coverplates may hamper power cooling of the chassis and its components.

5.To remove an installed CM, first disconnect any cabling and perform the installation steps in reverse.
