Installing/Removing I/O Cards
Be sure both power cords are removed before performing any
servicing of I/O cards. MAXX 2400 may be damaged even with
the power switch turned off.
Follow the preceding instructions to remove the top cover. The I/O cards are accessible from the
top of the chassis. Generally, I/O cards can be extracted or installed with a No. 2 Philips
screwdriver. Each I/O card is held in place by one or two 6-32 X ¼” pan head Phillips screws on
the rear panel of the chassis.
Video I/O Card
Remove the 6-32 x ¼” pan head Phillips screw holding the video card to the rear panel. Lift
the video card from the chassis. Unplug the 50-pin ribbon cable from the video card.
Immediately place the video card into a conductive storage bag to protect it from
electrostatic discharges.
Reverse the procedure to install a card.
RAID Controller Card
Unplug the Serial-ATA cables from the RAID card, checking the labeling to be sure they can
be reinstalled in the same positions.
Remove the 6-32 x ¼” pan head Phillips screw holding the RAID card to the rear panel.
Gently pull the card from its slot. Immediately place it in a conductive storage bag for
protection from electrostatic discharge that can damage it.
Reverse the procedure to install a card. Be certain to install the Serial ATA cables into the
correct RAID card connectors. The cables are marked with connector numbers to match the
numbers appearing next to each RAID card connector.
NOTE: If these cables are connected in the wrong order, the data in the RAID array
will be destroyed.
Accessing the Motherboard
There are no user-configurable options to set on the main system board. If you suspect that the
system board is not operating properly, consult with 360 Systems before proceeding. DO NOT
