Installation

Installation

The front and the rear modules are delivered together as a set: 8945EDA
front module with the 8900WE-R rear module or 8945EDA-D front module
with 8900WE-R rear module.

The front modules can be plugged in and removed from a GeckoFlex frame
with power on, without disrupting operation on adjacent running mod-
ules. When power is applied to the module, LED indicators reflect the ini-
tialization process (see

Power Up on page 18

).

Installation of the 8945EDA module set is a process of:

1.

Placing the 8900WE-R rear module in a rear frame slot,

2.

Configuring the local on-board settings if not using an 8900NET (Net
Card) (see

Local Configuration on page 13

),

3.

Placing the front module in the corresponding front slot.

Module Placement in the GeckoFlex Frame

There are ten front and rear cell locations in the 2 RU GeckoFlex frame
(

Figure 1

) to accommodate either audio, analog and digital video modules.

The 8945EDA module set may be plugged into any one of the available
GeckoFlex frame slots. It requires a single rear slot.
