Service manual

You must take special precautions when inserting the <REFERENCE>(XRP)
module in or removing it from the XMI card cage.
1. Be sure, when inserting the module in or removing it from the XMI
card cage, that no part of the module comes in contact with another
module or a cable.
2. When swapping out a module, place it in an unused XMI slot, if one is
available, or set the module on an ESD mat while you install the new
module.
An unused XMI slot is the best place to leave a module that is being
swapped out until it can be placed in the ESD box. If there are no
extra slots, place the module you removed on an ESD mat on a stable,
uncluttered surface, with side 1 (the side with the heat sinks) up. Do
not put it on the top of the system cabinet. And never slide the module
across any surface. The leads on the components are fragile and can be
damaged by contact with fingers or any surface.
3. Hold the XMI card cage handle while removing or inserting the module.
If it is not held in place, the handle can spring down and damage the
module.
4. When inserting the module in the card cage, grasp it as shown in
Figure 4–10, and slide it slowly and gently into the slot.
5. Do not attach the repair tag to the module.
Place the repair tag in the plastic bag attached to the bottom of the
ESD box. Allowing the repair tag to come in contact with the module
can cause damage to a component.
