Installing the Board
Board insertion may be done in a running CompactPCI system. Typically you will perform the
following steps:
C Attach your antistatic wrist strap to a metallic part of the system.
C Remove the board packaging, be sure to touch the board only at the front panel.
C Identify the related CompactPCI slot (peripheral slot for I/O boards, system slot for CPU
boards, with the system slot typically most right or most left to the backplane).
C Insert board carefully and push it slowly over the guide rails, but do not contact it with
any backplane connectors. Be sure not to damage components mounted on the bottom
side of the board by scratching neighboured front panels.
C Attach any necessary cabling to the board's front panel and onboard connectors.
C Press the board into the backplane connectors by the ejector lever(s) until the lever locks.
The blue hot swap LED illuminates during this process.
C Retain original packaging in case of return.
