Installing the Transition Module

Transition Module Preparation and Installation

 

 

5.9Installing the Transition Module

After all peripheral modules have been installed and all of the appropriate jumpers have been set, you are ready to install the transition module in its chassis slot. At this point, follow the steps below:

Procedure

To Install the rear transition module, follow these steps:

1.Attach an ESD strap to your wrist. Attach the other end of the strap to the chassis as a ground. The ESD strap must be secured to your wrist and to ground throughout the procedure.

2.Perform an operating system shutdown. Turn the AC or DC power off and remove the AC cord or DC power lines from the system. Remove the chassis or system cover(s) as necessary for access to the chassis backplane.

Personal Injury or Death

Dangerous voltages, capable of causing death, are present in this equipment. Use extreme caution when handling, testing and adjusting.

Damage of Circuits

Electrostatic discharge and incorrect installation and removal of the product can damage circuits or shorten their life.

Before touching the product or electronic components, make sure that your are working in an ESD-safe environment.

3.With the CPCI-6115-MCPTM in the correct vertical position that matches the pin positioning of the backplane, carefully slide the transition module into the appropriate slot and seat tightly into the backplane. Refer to Figure 5-10 on page 114 for the correct board/connector orientation.

4.Secure in place with the screws provided, making good contact with the transverse mounting rails to minimize RF emissions.

5.Replace the chassis or system cover(s), reconnect the system to the AC or DC power source and turn the equipment power on, or if hot-swapping, you may now install the CPCI-6106.
