Statement 1030
Warning
Filler cards serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and
currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI) that might disrupt other
equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not operate the system
unless all cards and faceplates are in place.
