Removing the I/O board or blank panel

On the SDI/HD-SDI I/O boards, inputs and outputs are grouped separately, with inputs A through H on the left and outputs A through H on the right.

Remove an I/O board or blank panel as follows:

NThe I/O boards are hot-swappable. You do not need to power down the switcher to remove an I/O board.

1.	For an I/O board, disconnect any connected cables.
2.	Rotate the left and right knurled knobs to completely loosen the captive
	screws.
3.	Gently pull on the knurled knobs/captive screws to loosen the board or panel
	from the backplane.
4.	Slide the board or panel out of the chassis (figure 7-2).

CDo not touch the electronic components or the connectors on the backplane or on the circuit boards without being electrically grounded. Handle circuit boards by their edges only. ESD can damage circuits, even if you cannot feel, see, or hear it.

5. Place the removed board on an anti-static surface or in an anti-static container.
