1.12 Connect Alarm Cables (Optional)
Note: Connecting the alarm cables at this time is optional. After initial system installation is
complete, the user can return to this section and connect the alarm cables and configure the
system alarms.
Two RJ-45 plugs are used as connecting cables for external alarms. Connect them as follows:
• one RJ-45 used for alarm indicator input, into the ALM IN port
• one RJ-45 used for the ALM OUT port as required.
Refer to the ATI User Guide for more information.
1.13 Install the System Cards
The following procedure is recommended for installing ATI system cards.
1. Remove the card from its antistatic container.
2. Hold the card securely with the component side to the right (lock-latch and label on the top of the chassis).
3. Locate the slot where the card is to be inserted.
4. Press the release button on the inside of the latches and push the latches out. (Refer to Figure 1-19 , Figure
1-20 , Figure 1-21 )
5. Insert the card into the specified slot.
6. While holding the latches/faceplate, slowly but firmly push the card into the slot, avoiding damaging card
electronic components, until the latches begin to engage the locking rail.
7. Close the latches until they lock into place.

1.14.1 Configurations
The 9700 provides the user with the choice of two configurations, duplex or simplex.
Note: This example is for the CFC24, but it can be applied to any CM supported on the 9700
system.
1.14.1.1 Simplex configuration
To install the CM:
1. As indicated earlier, the chassis comes with filler plates installed. Remove the filler plates from the two slots
(8 and 9 or 12 and 13) where the CM will be installed.
2. Take the card from its antistatic container. (Set aside the Special Instructions for Ferrite instructions and
the ferrite for the Ethernet cable. Refer to Section
