Installing and Removing the Board

This section describes the recommended procedure for installing the board in a chassis.
Read all warnings and instructions before installing the board.
The MVME2502 does not support hot swap. Power off the slot or system and make sure
that the serial ports and switches are properly configured.
Damage of Circuits
Electrostatic discharge and incorrect installation and removal can damage circuits
or shorten its 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.
Installation Procedure
1. Attach an ESD strap to your wrist. Attach the other end of the strap to an electrical
ground. Make sure that it is securely fastened throughout the procedure.
2. Remove VME filler panels from the VME enclosures, as appropriate.
3. Install the top and bottom edge of the board into the guides of the chassis.
4. Ensure that the levers of the two injector/ejectors are in the outward position.
5. Slide the board into the chassis until resistance is felt.
6. Simultaneously move the injector/ejector levers in an inward direction.
7. Verify that the board 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 board.
Removal Procedure
1. Turn off the power.
2. Disconnect all the cables.
3. Press the red locking tabs (IEEE handles only) to eject the board.
