NOTE: All 6KPM slots need not be filled in order for the Magnum 6K16-Series unit to be operational. When leaving 6KPM slots empty, always use a face plate (Magnum 6K8-BLNK) to cover the slot opening in the front panel. This will maintain proper cooling air flow, safety, and operation as required by FCC, CE, and other regulations.

Step 6. Now screw down the daughter board with 6 #440 screws, so that it holds the daughter board securely. The figure below shows the top view of 6KPM card

after successfully installing the 6KPM cards inside the Magnum 6K16-Series.
