Removing and Installing the I/O Board
Circuit boards can be replaced for fault correction. Beyond that, you can increase or
decrease the I/O configuration (size) of the Matrix 12800 by adding or removing
I/O boards and then rerunning the Virtualization/Control Program (see chapter 3,
Virtualization/Control software).
The following table identifies the number of inputs that each input board supports
and the number of outputs that each output board supports. Use this table to
determine how the size of the matrix changes with the removal or installation of a
single board.

The I/O boards are hot-swappable. You do not need to power down the
switcher to remove an I/O board.

Open the front door.
On the I/O cardcage door, turn the left and right knurled knobs ¼-turn
counterclockwise. Lower the door.
Do not touch the electronic components or the connectors on the backplane
or on the circuit boards without being electrically grounded. Handle
circuit boards by their edges only. ESD can damage ICs, even if you
cannot feel, see, or hear it.
Grasp the ejector levers on the board to be removed (figure 6-13). Pivot the
ejector levers out and away from the center of the board to lever the circuit
board out of the backplane.
Slide the board out of the cardcage.
Place the removed board on an anti-static surface or in an anti-static container.
If a replacement board is not being installed immediately, raise the I/O
cardcage door to vertical and turn the left and right knurled knobs ¼-turn
clockwise.
If a replacement board is not being installed immediately, close the front door.
If this circuit board removal is a permanent change to the size of the matrix,
the system will need to be virtualized again to recognize the change. Virtualize
the system using the detailed instructions in chapter 3, Virtualization/
Control Software.
