Installing a CodePlus Feature Card
Note: The CodePlus series products are NOT designed to be hot-swappable!!! Power
must be removed to the card frame before any CodePlus transcoder cards are inserted
or removed.
Note: All cards used in the card frame must be inserted and removed by qualied
service personnel only.
Note: Use extreme care when handling an HCS6300 card. Always observe proper
precautions with respect to static electricity and mechanical shock. When not installed
in a card frame, return the HCS6300 card to the anti-static bag in which it was shipped.
Note: The card slots in the card frame are NOT all identical!!! An HCS6300 card can only
be installed in the CONTROLLER slot. The connector arrangement of Slots 1 to 6 and 7
to 12 is incompatible with the HCS6300.
Note: When installing cards, remove blank cover plates and insert new cards as appli-
cable. For ports that will not be used, leave the blank cover plates in place for proper
ventilation and FCC and safety agency compliance.
Refer to the diagram on page 12, and follow the procedure below to install the CodePlus
feature card.
1. Unpack the HCS6300 unit and the supplied HCS6400 fan card.
Note: If you are installing the HCS6300 in an HCS6150R card frame, an HCS6400
fan card is pre-installed in Slot 7. In this case, the HCS6400 fan card shipped with the
HCS6300 is a spare.
2. Remove the AC power cord for the card frame from the power outlet.
3. Prepare the CONTROLLER slot in the card frame by removing either the blank cover plate
or the CodePlus card currently in the slot. If installing in an HCS6100R card frame, also
prepare Slot 7 for the HCS6400 fan card.
4. Without using force, slide the HCS6300 card into the CONTROLLER slot, and ensure that
it is fully inserted. If applicable, then slide the HCS6400 fan card into Slot 7, and ensure
that it is fully inserted.
5. Engage and tighten the top and bottom thumbscrews of the card(s) securely. Note that the
thumbscrews should only be nger tight; overtightening may damage the assembly.
6. Refer to the diagram on page 13 for cabling connections, and complete the HCS6300 system
installation procedure on page 14.
