2 Getting Started
In this chapter, we will describe the unpacking procedure for the cPCIS-2501
and installation procedures for CompactPCI boards and power supply unit
(PSU).
2.1 Shipping Contents
Check the shipping carton for any damage. If the shipping carton and
contents are damaged, please notify the dealer for a replacement. Retain
the shipping carton and packing material for inspection by the dealer. Obtain
authorization before returning any product to ADLINK.
Check that the following items are included in the package. If there are any
missing items, please contact your dealer:
• One cPCIS-2501 chassis
• cPS-H325/AC power supply
• This user’s manual
• Power cord (either N. American or European)
2.2 CompactPCI Board & PSU Installation
CompactPCI connectors are rigid, and therefore require careful handling
when inserted and removed. Improper manipulation of the cards will result in
damage to the backplane.
System slots usually have obvious indicators (e.g. red card guide rail, triangle
mark enclosing the slot number on the backplane, etc.). System cards can
only be installed in a system slot. Do not insert a system card into any other
slot, or insert any peripheral card into system slot.
The PSU slot also has an obvious indicator such as a green card guide rail in
a standard CompactPCI chassis (see photo below).
The handle on CompactPCI cards and PSUs ensures simple and safe
installation and removal. Please follow the procedures below to install a
CompactPCI module into the cPCIS-2501 chassis:
