To remove and replace optional modules or filler panels

1To reconfigure your system later in this procedure, note the configuration of your system.

Some modules for the Logic Analysis System require calibration if you move them to a different slot.

2Starting from the top, loosen the thumb screws on filler panels and cards in the mainframe or the expansion frame. Starting from the top, pull the cards and filler panels out.

All multicard modules will be cabled together. To prevent damage to the cables and connectors, pull all multicard modules out together.

3To replace the modules, reposition all cards and filler panels so that the endplates overlap properly.

4Firmly seat the bottom card into the backplane connector of the mainframe. Keep applying pressure to the center of the card endplate while tightening the thumb screws finger tight. Repeat for all cards and filler panels in a bottom to top order.

For correct air circulation, filler panels must be installed in all unused card slots. Correct air circulation keeps the instrument from overheating. Keep any extra filler panels for future use.
