Installing Module into a Matrix E7 or Matrix N7 Chassis
Matrix DFE-Gold Series Modules Installation Guide 3-11
1. Locate the chassis card guides that line up with the slot number in which the module
will be installed. (In this example, slot 1 is being used.) Make sure the module locking
levers are in the open position (top and bottom).
2. Align the module card between the upper and lower card guides of the desired slot
and slide it into the chassis, taking care that the module slides in straight. See Caution
below.
3. Slide the module into the slot until you can engage the top and bottom locking levers
with the chassis as shown in Figure 3-6.
4. Refer to the Caution note above, then rotate the two levers into the closed position.
5. If the chassis in which the module is installed was powered down for the installation,
turn the power supplies on. Check to see that the module CPU LED settles at solid
green after a few minutes. If the LED does not turn solid green, refer to Chapter 4 for
troubleshooting details.
Caution: Due to the amount of force needed to properly seat the module connectors into
the backplane connectors, it is best to apply force to the end of the levers to insert (or
eject) the module. Otherwise, damage could result to the module and chassis.
Caution: In step 4, do not force the locking levers to the point that they touch the face of
the front panel. Forcing the locking levers to this point could damage the module and
chassis.
