INSTALLING MODULES (CONT.)
CAUTION: Some module pins are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD)! Use a
grounding strap to prevent damage to the module by ESD.
CAUTION: Installing a module with bent pins will damage the backplane connector
pins on the module and may damage the mating chassis backplane connector.
CAUTION: If the OTOHP-NMS module is used, it should be installed in Slot 1 only.
Note: Modules can be installed and removed with the chassis powered. A power
supply module can also be placed in two adjacent slots.
Tip: It may be beneficial to install, connect, and configure one module at a time. Also,
installing similar type modules (i.e. Forward Transmitters or Return Receivers) in
groups can make the process easier because you will be dealing with the same
types of connections and configurations.
1. Inspect for bent pins on the backplane connector at the rear of the module.
Straighten any bent pins before installing the module.
2. Gently insert each module into a slot in the front of the chassis. Be careful to
align the metal guide rails on the top and bottom of the module with the nylon
guides in the interior of the chassis housing.
3. Tighten the thumbscrew on the front of the module.
4. Repeat Steps 1 through 3 to install the remaining modules in the chassis.
5. On the power supply module(s) plug the power cord (shipped with the power
supply module) into the IEC male receptacle and turn the power switch to the
“ON” position. The module will start to work.
6. The application modules available for installation in the OTOHP-CH chassis are
