Port card installation/removal
Adding or removing port cards will require that the system be powered off. Wear a grounding strap
and avoid unnecessary movement while handling the circuit boards.
Unplug the power supply and any cables. Turn the thumbscrews counterclockwise to remove the IP
module and the port cards. (Blank port covers will need to be removed with a Phillips screwdriver.)
IP 200
It will be necessary to give the port cards
an initial tug to dislodge them from the
backplane in the back of the unit.
Similarly, when inserting the cards,
give them a slight push to seat them in
the backplane. Port cards must be
installed starting from the rightmost card
slot. Don't leave empty card slots be-
tween installed port cards.
The LNC in the IP module is connected to
the backplane by a stiff cable. Remove
the top panel of the IP 200 to expose the
access hole in the top of the chassis.
Carefully pull the module forward and
reach in through the access hole to
remove the cable from the card.
