The RTM must only be installed into the slot associated with the proper companion front blade.
2.4.1 Installing the RTM
To install the RTM into an AdvancedTCA Shelf, proceed as follows.
Installation Procedure
The following procedure describes the installation of the RTM. It assumes that your system is
powered. If your system is unpowered, you can disregard the blue LED and thus skip the
respective step. In this case it is a purely mechanical installation.
Damage of Circuits
 Electrostatic discharge and incorrect RTM installation and removal can damage circuits
or shorten its life.
 Before touching the RTM or electronic components, make sure that you are working in
an ESD-safe environment.
Damage of the RTM
 Incorrect installation of the RTM can cause damage of the RTM.
 Only use handles when installing or removing the RTM to avoid damage/deformation to
the face plate and/or the PCB.
Slow down and give blade insertion your full attention! If there are Rear Transition Modules
(RTMs) to install, install/secure the RTMs first, then install the front blades.
