AFG Installation in
a Mainframe
The Agilent E1445A may be installed in any slot (except slot 0) in a C-size
VXIbus mainframe. If an Agilent E1446A Summing Amplifier/DAC is part of
your system, the amplifier should be installed in a slot next to the E1445A.
To install in a mainframe:
1. Set the extraction levers out. Slide the module into any slot (except
slot 0) until the backplane connectors touch.
2. Seat the module by moving the levers toward each other.
3. Tighten the top and bottom screws to secure the module in the
mainframe.
Note For compliance with European EMI standards, order the Backplane
Connector Shield Kit Agilent Part Number E1400-80920.
Removing a Module To remove a module from a mainframe:
1. Loosen the top and bottom screws securing the module in the
mainframe.
2. Move the extraction levers away from each other. As the levers are
moved, the module will detach from the backplane connectors.
3. Slide the module out.
