Chapter 3 Removing and Installing Boards
Adept MV Controller User’s Guide, Rev. B 63
2. If the slot has a blank panel installed, loosen the captive screws at the top and
bottom of the panel and remove it.
3. Verify that the intended slot for the board is ready to accept the board. If the
slot has been unused, make sure there are no backplane jumper plugs installed
for that slot; see Figure 3-4 or Figure 3-5.
4. Align the board with the card guide slots at the top and bottom of the card
cage. Slide the board in slowly. Apply straight forward pressure to the two
handles on the outer edge of the board until it is firmly seated in the backplane
connector, and the face of the board is flush with the other boards.
5. Tighten the captive screws at the top and bottom of the board.
It should not be necessary to use excess pressure or force
to engage the connectors. If the board does not properly connect
with the backplane, remove the board and inspect all connectors
and guide slots for possible damage or obstructions.
