Installing And Wiring Your Module

Read this chapter to install and wire your module. This chapter covers:

• avoiding electrostatic damage

• determining power requirements

• selecting a rack slot

• inserting your module into the rack

• wiring your module

Note that although your module has a jumper on its printed circuit board,

this jumper is for the manufacturer’s use only, so do not alter its position.

Also, your module was calibrated by the manufacturer, so you don’t need

to perform this task. You may, however, want to verify the calibration

periodically using the procedures provided in Appendix A.

The following documents contain information that may help you as you

install and wire your module:
