Installation and Upgrading
Installing NetLinx Control Cards (NI-4100 Only)
NetLinx Cards can be installed into the front card slots. The cards mount horizontally through the card
slot openings on the front of the enclosure.
1. Discharge the static electricity from your body, by touching a grounded object.
2. Remove the three screws by turning them in a counter-clockwise direction and then remove the
faceplate (FIG. 7).
3. Align the edges of the card with the internal guide slots and gently slide the card all the way into the
slot (FIG. 8).
4. Carefully apply a small amount of force to insert the cards into their respective connectors. If the
cards have LEDs on them, those LEDs will initiate a lighting sequence to indicate they are receiving
power and are communicating with the Controller.
5. Re-align the faceplate and secure it to the chassis by inserting the three screws by turning them in a
clockwise direction and securing the front plate to the Integrated Controller.
6. Install all rear connectors and apply power.
