Hardware Installation
This chapter provides information on the initial hardwareinstallation procedure,
including installing modules and external I/O connections.

Unshipping and Mounting the System

Once you have removed the packaging from the system, you must then unship the
system from the delivery pallet and brackets before attempting to mount the chassis
in a rack.
Caution – Do not attempt to remove the red plinth before the chassis has been
mounted in the rack.
There is an instruction card attached to the front of the system; the instructions
below are intended to supplement this.
Note – Do not discardthe packaging after removing it from the system. It should be
stored in safe, dry place so it can be used in the event that the system requires
moving or returning for repair.

Tools

The tools required to unship the system are contained in a cloth bag attached to the
chassis.
