Connect the AC power source to the PXI Express chassis before
installing the system controller. The AC power cord grounds the
chassis and protects it from electrical damage while you install the
system controller.
Install the system controller into the system controller slot (slot 1,
indicated by the red card guides) by first placing the system controller
PCB into the front of the card guides (top and bottom). Slide the
system controller to the rear of the chassis, making sure that the
injector/ejector handle is pushed down as shown in Figure 2-3.
