Installing the cPCI-R6700

The cPCI-R6700 may be installed in an RTM slot of a 6U Com-
pactPCI chassis when mated to a compatible CPU blade. See
the6U RTM Blade-to-RTM Compatibility Guide at
http://www.adlinktech.com/cPCI/CompactPCI-Rear-Transition.html.

These instructions are for reference only. Refer to the user guide
that comes with the chassis for more information.

1. Ensure that the cPCI-R6700 is compatible with the CPU

blade and the backplane prior to installation.

2. If required, ensure that the 2.5" SATA drive, Auxiliary

Power Cord, or other peripheral devices are properly
installed.

3. Remove the black plastic caps securing the retaining

screws to the faceplate.

4. Ensure that the system is powered OFF before proceed-

ing.

5. Select the appropriate slot for the cPCI-R6700 RTM as

determined by your application requirements.

6. Align the module's top and bottom edges to the chassis

card guides, and then carefully slide the module into the
chassis. A slight resistance may be felt when inserting
the module. If the resistance it too strong, check if there
are bent pins on the backplane or if the board's connec-
tor pins are not properly aligned with connectors on the
backplane. Then push the board until it is completely
flush with the chassis

7. Push the ejector handles outwards to secure the module

in place, and then fasten the retaining screws on the
module face plate.

8. If required, connect any cables and peripherals to the

board, and then power ON the chassis.
