Appendix E – Adding or Replacing Boards
Applicability
This appendix covers the removal and replacement procedure for the Enova DGX input and output
boards listed in the tables below. Enova DGX boards are hot-swappable, i.e., the procedure can be done
while the system is powered up. (If the board being removed or installed is a DGX SC Optical Board,
be sure to read the first
Caution in “Safety Recommendations for Laser Products” on the next page.)
Input and Output Boards
Enova DGX DVI Boards
Enova DGX HDMI Boards
Enova DGX DXLink™ Twisted Pair Boards
Epica DGX SC Optical Boards
Expansion Boards
The Enova DGX Audio Insert/Extract Board (FG1058-700) can be replaced or added using the
procedure in this appendix. However, we recommend using the procedure in the “Audio Insert/Extract
Board” chapter because it includes instructions for setting the DIP switches to insert or extract audio
(see page 105).
Note: If you plan to use the instructions in this appendix, remember that the Audio Insert/Extract
Board can only be installed in an expansion slot.
Procedure Overview
Important: Adding or replacing boards should only be done by personnel trained to handle
ESD sensitive parts and assemblies.
ESD Warning: To avoid ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) damage to sensitive components,
make sure you are properly grounded before touching any internal Enova DGX materials.
Use an ESD wristband and cord with an alligator clip attached to a good ground source.
