3. When you begin to feel resistance, pull up on the injector/ejector handle to seat the
system controller fully into the chassis frame. Secure the system controller front panel to
the chassis using the system controller front panel mounting screws.
4. Connect the keyboard, mouse, and monitor to the appropriate connectors. Connect
devices to ports as required by your system configuration.
5. Power on the chassis. Verify that the system controller boots. If the system controller does
not boot, refer to the Troubleshooting section or your system controller user manual.
Installing Peripheral Modules
This section contains general installation instructions for installing a peripheral module in a
PXIe-1088 chassis. Refer to your peripheral module user manual for specific instructions and
warnings. To install a module, complete the following steps:
1. Connect the AC power source to the PXI Express chassis before installing the module.
The AC power cord grounds the chassis and protects it from electrical damage while you
install the module.
2. Ensure that the chassis is powered off.
3. Install a module into a chassis slot by first placing the module card PCB into the front of
the card guides (top and bottom), as shown in the following figure. Slide the module to
the rear of the chassis, making sure that the injector/ejector handle is pushed down, as
shown in the following figure.
4. When you begin to feel resistance, push up on the injector/ejector handle to fully seat the
module into the chassis frame. Secure the module front panel to the chassis using the
module front-panel mounting screws.
