Installing or Replacing a System Controller Module
Step 2
If you are installing the module in an empty slot, remove the blank module that is already in that slot. Unscrew its captive
screw and pull it out of the slot. Go to Step 4.
Step 3
If you are replacing a module that is currently in the chassis, remove the existing module from the chassis by following
these steps:
a) Unscrew the two captive screws (one on each side of the module) until the screws are no longer in contact with the
chassis.
b) Slide and hold the middle handle on the ejector lever toward the end of the lever.
c) Rotate the ejector lever away from the front of the module.
As you rotate the lever, the module unseats from the midplane and moves slightly forward.
d) Use the lever to pull the module a couple of inches (about 5 cm) out of the slot.
e) Use one hand to hold the front of the module, place your other hand under the module to support its weight, pull the
module out of the chassis. Set it on an antistatic surface or inside an antistatic bag.
Step 4
To install the new module, follow these steps:
a) Slide and hold the middle handle on the ejector lever toward the end of the lever. See the following figure.
1
Slide the middle handle on the ejector lever to the
end of the lever and rotate the lever away from the
module.
2
Align the back of the module to the open slot in the
chassis.
b) Hold the front of the module with one hand and place your other hand under the module to support it.
c) Align the back of the module to the guides in the open controller slot and slide the module all the way into the slot.
