Installing and Removing the Board

This section describes a recommended procedure for installing a board module in a
chassis. The MVME7100ET does not support hot swap, you should remove power to the
slot or system before installing the module. Before installing the MVME7100ET, ensure that
the serial ports and switches are properly configured.
Installation and Removal Procedure
Before you install your module, read all cautions, warnings, and instructions described in
this section.
Damage of Circuits
Electrostatic discharge and incorrect installation and removal can damage circuits
or shorten their life.
Before touching the board or electronic components, make sure that you are
working in an ESD-safe environment.
Product Damage
Only use injector handles for board insertion to avoid damage to the front panel
and/or PCB. Deformation of the front panel can cause an electrical short or other
board malfunction
Use the following steps to install the MVME7100ET into your computer chassis.
1. Attach an ESD strap to your wrist. Attach the other end of the ESD strap to an electrical
ground. The ESD strap must be secured to your wrist and to ground throughout the
procedure.
2. Remove any filler panel that might fill that slot.
3. Install the top and bottom edge of the MVME7100ET into the guides of the chassis.
4. Ensure that the levers of the two injector/ejectors are in the outward position.
5. Slide the MVME7100ET into the chassis until resistance is felt.
6. Simultaneously move the injector/ejector levers in an inward direction.
7. Verify that the MVME7100ET is properly seated and secure it to the chassis using the
two screws located adjacent to the injector/ejector levers.
8. Connect the appropriate cables to the MVME7100ET.
To remove the board from the chassis, reverse the procedure and press the red locking
tabs (IEEE handles only) to extract the board.
