3. Carefully remove the Control Module from its slot in the SSR chassis.
Installing a Control Module

Note: You can install either a line card or a Control Module in slot CM/1, but you can
install only a Control Module in slot CM.
1. Slide the Control Module or line card all the way into the slot, firmly but gently
pressing it in place to ensure that the pins on the back of the card are completely
seated in the backplane.
Note: Make sure the circuit card (and not the metal plate) is between the card
guides. Check both the upper and lower tracks.
2. Tighten the captive screws on each side of the Control Module or line card to secure it
to the chassis.
On a line card, the Online LED lights, indicating it is now active.
On a secondary Control Module, the Offline LED lights, indicating it is standing by to
take over as the primary Control Module if necessary.
