5.Remove the PCI board by pulling straight up.
6.Store board in an antistatic protective wrapper.
7.If you are not reinstalling a board in the same slot, install a slot cover over the vacant slot. The tapered foot of the cover must fit into the mating slot in the expansion slot frame.
Installing a 64-bit, 66/33 MHz Hot-Plug PCI Add-in Board
WARNING
If the system has been running, any installed PCI add-in board on the processor board(s) will be hot. To avoid the possibility of a burn, be careful when removing or installing baseboard components that are located near processors.
CAUTIONS
Do not overload baseboard: Do not overload the baseboard by installing add-in boards that draw excessive current.
ESD and handling boards: Add-in boards can be extremely sensitive to ESD and always require careful handling. After removing the board from its protective wrapper or from the baseboard, place it component-side up on a grounded, static-free surface or conductive foam pad—if available. Do not slide the board over any surface.
1.If necessary, expose the SKA4 baseboard by removing the access covers and foam cover. For instructions on how to remove access covers for your system, see the product guide accompanying your system.
2.Remove add-in board from its protective wrapper. Be careful not to touch the components or gold edge connectors. Place board component-side up on an antistatic surface.
3.Record the serial number of the add-in board in your equipment log.
4.Make sure that the slot is powered off. Power off the add-in board through the PCI Hot-Plug application on your system, or through a HW push-button (if available).
5.Set jumpers or switches on the board according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
6.If necessary, remove and save the expansion slot cover.
7.Hold the add-in board by its top edge or upper corners. Firmly press it into an expansion slot on the baseboard. The tapered foot of the board-retaining bracket must fit into the mating slot in the expansion slot frame. Install a PCI board component-side DOWN.
8.If there is a front and rear Hot-Plug retention mechanism, engage it.
9.Use the screw removed earlier to fasten the new board to the chassis. Tighten the screw firmly (6.0 inch-pounds).
10.Attach cables if necessary.
11.Power on the add-in board through the PCI Hot-Plug application on your system, or through a HW push-button (if available).
