Installation manual

1 Verify that the I/O module blank injector/ejector handles are open.
Keep the injector/ejector handles in the open position as you slide the I/O module blank into the
unoccupied chassis slot.
Figure 41: Installing an I/O Module Blank
Note
If the injector/ejector handles are in the latched position, they prevent the I/O module
blank from sliding all the way into the slot.
2 Carefully slide the I/O module blank into the slot until the injector/ejector handles engage the edges
of the chassis and begin to rotate toward the center of the module.
3 Push the handles toward each other to seat the I/O module blank.
4 Use a # 2 Phillips screwdriver to lock each handle into place.
When a locking screw is fully tightened, the yellow band around the screw head is completely
hidden.
Caution
Be careful to avoid over-torquing and stripping the screw heads.
