Removing the Card
To remove a card from the module (Figure 2-3), complete the following steps:
Step Action
1 Attach one end of an antistatic wrist strap to your wrist and clip the other
end to the chassis ground (for example, a screw on the side of the
chassis).
CAUTION: Static electricity can damage modules and electronic
components. DIGITAL recommends using a grounded antistatic wrist
strap and a grounded work surface when handling any modules.
2 Disconnect all cables from the card. Refer to the card’s documentation
for cable removal information.
3 Use a Phillips-head screwdriver to loosen the two captive screws that
hold the card in place.
4 Grasp the captive screws and disconnect the card from the host module
by pulling on the screws.
5 Gently slide the card out of the slot.
6 Replace the dust caps on the card, if necessary.
7 Place the card into a static-proof bag.
8 If the slot is to be unused, reinstall the slot cover.
