Installing a Line or I/O Module
To install a module:
1
Connect the antistatic wrist strap to the ESD grounding jack on your
ERX system.
Caution: When handling modules, use an antistatic wrist strap connected to the
ERX system’s ESD grounding jack. This action helps to protect the module from
damage by electrostatic discharge.
2
Choose the slot where you want to insert the module.
For the ERX-1400 series, you can install line modules in slots 0
through 5 and slots 8 through 13; for the ERX-700 series you can
choose slots 2 through 6.
3 With a Phillips screwdriver, loosen the top and bottom screws that
secure the blank faceplate covering the empty chassis slot, as shown
in
Figure 3-5 .
4
Remove the faceplate.
Caution: Always handle the module by its edges. Do not touch the components,
pins, leads, or solder connections.
5
Remove the module from its antistatic bag.
6
Make sure that the ejectors are in position 1, as shown in Figure 3-7 .
7
Position the module as follows:
• For the ERX-1400 series, position the module vertically so that
the labeling is upright.
• For the ERX-700 series, position the module horizontally so that
the labeling is to the right.
8
Guide the module into the chassis by placing it between the guides of
the selected slot, and slide the module until it stops.
The module stops sliding when the ejectors make contact with the
front of the chassis.
Figure 3-9 shows how to install an I/O module
and a line module in the ERX-1400 series.
