Installing a Module Blank
To install a module blank:
1 Check the condition of the EMI gaskets along the front panel edges of the blank, and confirm that
the gaskets are not damaged.
2 Align the module blank with the card guides for the open slot on the chassis (see Figure 36).

3 Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver to tighten the captive screws at each end of the module blank.
NOTE
Tighten the screws of each installed module blank before inserting additional modules or blanks.
Otherwise, you might unseat modules or blank front panels that you have not secured.
