NetScan User’s Manual Configuring and Starting NetScan 1-3
Install Signal Conditioning Card(s)
Signal conditioning cards are pre-installed per customer order. However, if you need to install a signal
conditioning card, or CSN/Relay card, perform the following steps. Repeat the steps for additional cards,
and for placing cards into the optional CSN/Exp expansion chassis, if applicable.

Ensure NetScan is powered down and not connected to any power source prior to
installing or removing a card. Failure to do so could cause equipment damage.

Use approved ESD precautions, including static-free work area and grounded wrist
strap, when handling circuit boards and electronic components. Failure to do so
could cause equipment damage due to electrostatic discharge.
&$87,21
Only one CSN/Relay card can be used in a NetScan system. Attempts to install the
CSN/Relay card in a slot other than slot #1 of NetScan’s main unit can cause
equipment damage.
The CSN/Relay card, if used, must be installed in the bottom slot of the main unit.
Aside from this requirement, cards may be installed in any slot.
1. Ensure NetScan is powered down and not connected to any power source.
2. With channel labels oriented upright, carefully slide the card into the unit, and along the card support
grooves. Gently force the card to engage its edge connector with NetScan’s internal mating connector.
3. Tighten the external screws snug, at each end of the card.
