Installation and setup

Static Discharge

Whenever handling the VLD-1002-MD and other related equipment, please
observe all static discharge precautions as described in the following
note:

Static discharge can cause serious damage to sensitive semiconductor
devices. Avoid handling circuit boards in high static environments such
as carpeted areas, and when wearing synthetic fiber clothing. Always
exercise proper grounding precautions when working on circuit boards
and related equipment.

Board Installation

Use the following procedure to install the VLD-1002-MD in an openGear
(DFR-8310-N) distribution frame with cooling fans:

Due to power consumption and heat dissipation requirements, the VLD-
1002-MD must only be installed in a frame with the cooling fan option
installed.

1.

Refer to the User Manual of the openGear 8300 series frame

to ensure that the frame is properly installed according to

instructions.

2.

A maximum of 8 VLD-1002-MD or other Algogear cards can be

installed in the DFR-8310 series frame.

Do not populate the openGear frame with more than 8 Algogear

cards. Attempting to do so may damage the cards, the frame

or

both.

3.

After selecting the desired frame and installation slot, hold the

VLD-1002-MD card by the edges and carefully align the card

edges with the slots in the frame. Then fully insert the card into

the frame until the rear connection plugs are properly seated

on the midplane and rear modules.
