Module Installation

6. Ensure levers fully lock into the closed position. If the chassis is

powered up, the Blue HotSwap LED flashes briefly and then turns off.

7. Secure the module to the chassis with the screws on either side of the

module.

8. If required, connect the External Time Sync cables to the card to

provide the synchronized hardware based timestamps for test
measurements.

9. Re-insert any cables into the test-port as required.

Extracting a Module

Follow these steps to remove a module from the QA-805 Chassis:
1.
If the chassis is powered up, ensure that the module is not in use in any

Test Application, otherwise measurement data could be lost.

2. Fully loosen the screws on either side of the module.

3. Remove any cables connected to the module, noting their positions if

needed.

4. If the External Time Sync cables are plugged into this card, move them

to another card in the system to ensure the chassis will still have a
synchronized hardware based timestamp.

5. If the chassis is powered up, release the HotSwap latches to start the

HotSwap process. The Blue HotSwap LED will blink for several
seconds. When the LED is solid blue, the card can be safely extracted.

6. Slowly open both levers, applying constant pressure to unseat the card

from the chassis's backplane.

7. Slide the module carefully out of the chassis along the guide rails.

8. Fill any open slots in the chassis with an appropriate

Filler Card/Air Baffle.
