card.Do the following to install the cards into the rack chassis:

1. Slide the rear card into the back of the chassis along the metal rails.

2. Secure the rear card using the supplied metal screws.

3. Slide the front card into the chassis until you feel resistance as the

front card engages the rear card. When that happens,

gently

push

the front card forward until it is fully seated in the card-edge recepta-

so it is not necessary to power down the rack when you install or

remove a Model 1068 rack card.
