Replacing Cards
All cards and rear panels can be installed with the frame power on. Each card has a
connector which plugs into the frame’s backplane for distribution of power and connection
to the controller card, and one or two connectors (depending on the card type) that plug
into the rear panel for inputs and outputs.
Removing a card
To remove a card
1 Open the front door of the frame (see Opening the front door , on page 6).
2 Tilt the swivel handle, on the front of the card you wish to remove, to lever the
connectors apart, and then use the handle to pull the card straight out of the slot.
3 Close the front door of the frame (see Closing the front door , on page 6).

2 To install a card into an empty slot, slide the card into the slot, with the swivel handle to
the right, and push gently on the handle to seat the connectors. Inserting the card into
the wrong slot will not damage the card, and will be flagged by the on-card status LED

of the frame.

the rear connectors.
