Chapter 2
Installation and Setup
Overview
This chapter contains the following information:
• Installing the 9305 Into a Frame Slot (p. 2-1)
• Installing a Rear I/O Module (p. 2-3)
• Setting Up 9305 Network Remote Control (p. 2-5)
Installing the 9305 Into a Frame Slot
CAUTION
Heat and power distribution requirements within a frame may dictate specific
slot placement of cards. Cards with many heat-producing components should
be arranged to avoid areas of excess heat build-up, particularly in frames
using only convection cooling. The 9305 has a moderate power dissipation
(7 W max.). As such, avoiding placing the card adjacent to other cards with
similar dissipation values if possible.
CAUTION
Note: • If installing the 9305 in a slot already equipped with a suitable I/O
module, proceed to card installation steps below.
• If installing the 9305 in a slot with no rear I/O module, an optional Rear
I/O Module is required before cabling can be connected. Install the Rear
I/O Module as described in Installing a Rear I/O Module (p. 2-3).
This device contains semiconductor devices which are
susceptible to serious damage from Electrostatic
Discharge (ESD). ESD damage may not be immediately
apparent and can affect the long-term reliability of the
device.
Avoid handling circuit boards in high static environments
such as carpeted areas, and when wearing synthetic fiber
clothing. Always use proper ESD handling precautions
and equipment when working on circuit boards and
related equipment.
