Recognize Different Injector/Ejector Lever Types

Hardware Preparation and Installation

 

 

The CPCI-6020 does not support a hot swap LED. You may need to manually shut down applications or operating systems running on the board prior to board removal.

Data Loss

Powering down or removing a board before the operating system or other software running on the board has been properly shut down may cause corruption of data or file systems.

Make sure all software is completely shut down before removing power from the board or removing the board from the chassis.

Refer to the documents listed in Appendix A, Related Documentation for more information about hot swap and the PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group (PICMG) Hot Swap Specification.

2.12.4Recognize Different Injector/Ejector Lever Types

The modules you install may have different ejector handles and latching mechanisms. The following illustration shows the typical board ejector handles used with ECC payload cards: (A) Elma Latching, (B) Rittal Type II, (C) Rittal Type IV. All handles are compliant with the CompactPCI specification and are designed to meet the IEEE1101.10 standards.

ABC

Each lever type has a latching mechanism to prevent the lever from being opened accidentally. You must press the lever release before you can open the lever. Never force the lever. If the lever does not open easily, you may not have pressed firmly enough on the release. If the lever does not close easily, the board may not be properly seated in the chassis.

zTo open a lever, press the release and move the lever outward away from the face plate.

zTo close a lever, move the lever inward toward the face plate until the latch engages.
