Removing and Replacing the Server Main Cover (2-Channel Models)
The AirSpeed 5000 server must be operated with the chassis cover in place to ensure proper
cooling. However, you will need to remove the main cover to remove the Video I/O board, and
add the appropriate codec modules to it.

Before removing the main cover, make sure the server is powered down, and all peripheral
devices and AC power cables are unplugged.

A nonskid surface or a stop behind the server may be needed to prevent the server from sliding
on your work surface.
To remove the server main cover:
1. Observe the safety precautions described in “Electrostatic Discharge Precautions” on
page 19 and “Safety and Regulatory Information” in the AirSpeed 5000 Setup Guide.
2. Unscrew the thumbscrews at the back of the unit until they are loose.
3. Pull the thumbscrews backwards and slide the main cover until it hits the tabs.
4. Remove the main cover and set in a safe place.
To replace the server main cover:
1. Place the main cover over the server system so that the side edges of the cover sit just outside
the server system sidewalls.
2. Slide the main cover forward until it fits in place.
3. Tighten the rear thumbscrews.
4. The next step is to remove the Video I/O board. For more information, see “Removing the
Video I/O Board (2-Channel Models)” on page 20.
