Step 2

Grasp the handle on the front of the alarm card and slide the alarm card halfway
out of the slot, then stop.

Step 3

Touching only the metal card carrier, use your free hand to support the bottom of
the alarm card and slide the card completely out of the chassis.

Always place the alarm card directly into an antistatic bag or other
ESD-preventive container.

If you plan to return the defective alarm card to the factory, repackage it in
the shipping container you received with the replacement card.

Step 4

Set both edges of the alarm card carrier into the card slot carrier alignment
grooves on either side of the alarm card slot and slide the card into the chassis
until its connector makes contact with the backplane, then stop.

Step 5

Push the alarm card firmly to seat it in the backplane.

Step 6

Tighten the two alarm card captive screws.

Caution

Do not overtighten the captive screws; over tightening can strip the
threads on the screw or in the insert in the alarm card faceplate.
